Spleen from five naïve C57BL/6 mice were harvested and a single cell suspension was prepared followed by RBC lysis. Naïve T cells were negatively selected using EasySep™ Mouse T-cell Isolation Kit (Stemcell Technologies, Vancouver Canada) as per manufacturer’s instructions. Naïve T cells were then polarized in to different subsets as described previously (Noubade et al. 2011 (link); Noubade et al. 2007 (link)). Briefly, 1×105 T cells were stimulated for 72h in complete RPMI media (Genesee, San Diego, CA) with plate bound anti-CD3 (5μg/ml) and soluble CD28 antibodies (2μg/ml) (Biolegend) for the Th0 condition.

Human peripheral blood was obtained from healthy volunteers who are not taking any medications. PBMCs were prepared by using lymphocyte separation medium (MP Biomedicals), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Subsequently, total CD4+ T cells were isolated by means of negative selection with CD14 microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec), followed by positive selection with CD4 microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec). Naive and effector memory CD4+ T cells were further sorted as CD3+CD4+ CD45RA+CD45ROCD25 and CD3+CD4+CD45RACD45RO+ cells, respectively, by using the FACSAria III cell sorter (BD Biosciences). For naive T-cell differentiation, naive T cells undergoing fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) were stimulated with plate-coated anti-CD3 (10 μg/mL, OKT3; BioLegend) and soluble anti-CD28 (2 μg/mL, CD28.2; BioLegend) for 4 or 7 days. For TH2 polarization, IL-2 (10 ng/mL), IL-4 (10 ng/mL), and anti–IFN-γ (5 μg/mL, B27; BioLegend) were added.

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.
