To determine the Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg cells in mice, flow cytometric analysis was performed on isolated DRG cells using CD4, Foxp3, IL-17A, TGF-β, and IL-4 antibodies as reported previously (18 (link)). Briefly, the cells suspension was transferred into 1 mL phosphate buffer saline (PBS) and centrifuged at 350 g for 5 min. After centrifugation, the supernatant was removed and the cells were resuspended with 500 μL fixation/permeabilization then centrifuged at 350 g for 5 mice after standing at room temperature for 30 min. The resuspension was repeated for twice. The cells were then incubated with monoclonal antibodies, including CD4-FITC, FOXP3-PE, IL-17A-PE, IL-4-PE, and IFN-γ-PE antibodies (eBiosciences, San Diego, California, USA) at dark for 30 min.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
