CD4+ T cells were enriched from the spleens of TCR75.Thy1.1 mice using MagniSort Mouse CD4+ T cell enrichment kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific) according to manufacturer’s guidelines. Enriched CD4+ T cells were labeled with 5μM of CFDA (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA) and 3×106 cells were adoptively transferred via lateral tail vein injections into B6 recipient mice. On the next day, recipient mice were injected with 5×106 donor leukocytes (by tail vein) prepared as described above. At 3 days post leukocyte infusion, spleens were harvested and TCR75 T cells identified using antibodies against CD4 and Thy1.1. Proliferation was assessed via CFSE dilution on an LSR II flow cytometer (BD Bioscience).

To establish an MLR, CD4 + T cells were first obtained from the spleen and lymph nodes of a native C57/B6 mouse. BMDCs were isolated and cultured as described above. SOCS3+/+ and SOCS3−/− BMDCs were pretreated for 20 min at 37 °C in culture medium containing 200 μg/ml mitomycin C (Kyowa Hakko Kogyo, Tokyo, Japan). Murine CD4 + T cells were separated by negative isolation using a MagniSort™ Mouse CD4 T Cell Enrichment Kit (Thermo Fisher). Prior to culture, the purified CD4 + T cells were labeled with CFSE (Invitrogen, Ltd., UK) for subsequent assessment of T cell proliferation. Mitomycin C-treated SOCS3+/+ or SOCS3−/− DCs were cocultured with CD4 + T cells at a ratio of 1:4 in a 37 °C, 5% CO2 atmosphere for 5 days. T cell proliferation was assessed by evaluating CFSE dilution on the last day of culture. After stimulation with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA; 100 ng/ml, Sigma) and ionomycin (5 μmol/L, Sigma) overnight, the supernatants of the cocultured cells were collected, and IL-4 and IFN-γ production was determined by ELISA.

Rosa26-LSL-dCas9-p300 or Rosa26-LSL-dCas9-KRAB mice were backcrossed with a B6-Foxp3-eGFP mouse line (Jax stock# 006772)75 (link), 76 (link) for six generations and then crossed with the B6-CD4:Cre mouse line (Jax stock# 022071)77 (link) to generate heterozygous Cd4:Cre+/dCas9-KRAB+/Foxp3-eGFP+ or Cd4:Cre+/dCas9-p300+/Foxp3-eGFP+ experimental mice. Spleens and lymph nodes were harvested, dissociated, and processed with ammonium chloride potassium (ACK) lysis buffer and passed through the Magnisort mouse CD4 T cell enrichment kit (Thermo, Cat#8804-6821-74). Lymphocytes were surface-stained with antibodies for the purification of nT cells (CD4+CD25CD62LhiCD44lo) through FACS using either a Beckman Culture Astiros (CD4-FITC 1:400; CD25-eFluor450 1:300; CD62L-APC 1:500; CD44-PE 1:500, and fixable viability dye e780 1:1000) or SONY SH800 (CD4-PECy7 1:500; CD25-PE 1:500; CD44-FITC 1:400; CD62L-PEcy5 1:500; Live/Dead Red 1:1000) instrument to achieve ≥98% purity. For ChIP-seq, Tn cells were purified using Magnisort mouse Naïve CD4+ Tcell enrichment kit (Thermo, Cat#8804-6824-74) rather than sorting in order to increase starting material. Antibody information: CD4 (eBiosciences, Cat#25-0042-82), CD25 (eBiosciences, Cat#12-0251-83), CD44 (eBiosciences, Cat#11-0441-85), CD62L (eBiosciences, Cat#15-0621-82).

For the Foxp3+ regulatory T (Treg) cell conversion assay, the CD25+ population in harvested splenocytes from naive mice was primarily removed with the CD25 MicroBead Kit (Miltenyi Biotec), and CD4+ T cells were subsequently isolated with the MagniSort™ Mouse CD4 T cell Enrichment Kit (Thermo Fisher). The T cells were then labeled with 5 μM CellTrace™ Violet (Thermo Fisher) and cocultured for 4 days with either BMDCs or SPDCs at a ratio of 5:3 (50,000 T cells:30,000 DCs) with or without 2 ng/ml human TGF-β (R&D Systems) in the presence of 50 U of human IL-2 (PeproTech).

LNs and spleen were isolated from Thy1.1 congenic C57BL/6 mice, CD4+ T cells were isolated by magnetic sorting (MagniSort Mouse CD4 T Cell Enrichment Kit, affymetrix/eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA), and divided into two populations, one of which was incubated with EtOH (1:1,000, 2 h) and labeled with eFluor 670 (affymetrix/eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA; 5 µM, 10 min), and the other treated with ES048 (2 h, 1.5 µM) and subsequently CFSE labeled (affymetrix/eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA; 5 µM, 10 min). To exclude an impact of the dye, labels were switched for half of the transfers. T cells were mixed at a 1:1 ratio and a total of 1 × 107 cells of the mixture was injected into the tail vain of C57BL/6 mice. After the time periods indicated, T cells were harvested from the blood, LN, and spleen and the frequency of Thy1.1+/dye positive cells was analyzed by flow cytometry.

CD4+ T cells for T-cell activation were extracted from the spleens of experimental and control mice. We used a MagnisortTM Mouse CD4 Naïve T cell Enrichment Kit (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) to isolate purified naïve T cells. The purity of the enriched CD3+CD4+CD44lo T cells was 90–95%. Naïve CD4+ T cells were stimulated with 1 μg/mL anti-CD3 (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) and 1 μg/mL anti-CD28 antibodies (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA). The phosphorylation of AKT1, mTOR and RPS6KB1 was assessed by flow cytometry. For TSG101-deficient CD4+ T cell analysis, whole CD4+ T cells from the spleens of experimental or control mice were enriched using a Magnisort™ Mouse CD4 T cell Enrichment Kit (Invitrogen, Waltham, MA, USA) and stimulated with 1 μg/mL anti-CD3 and 1 μg/mL anti-CD28 antibodies for 8 h. Activated CD4+ T cells were harvested and analyzed by flow cytometry. The antibodies used for flow cytometry are listed in Supplementary Table 1.

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.
