Genetically Engineered Mouse Models

All animal studies were performed according to the investigator’s protocol approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees of New York University School of Medicine. The Dnase1l3−/− mouse model on C57BL/6 (B6) background [Dnase1l3LacZ/LacZ] was described previously (20 (link)). Mice carrying a targeted allele of Dnase1 (Dnase1tm1.1(KOMP)Vlcg) on B6 background were obtained from the Knockout Mouse Project and crossed with WT B6 and Dnase1l3−/− mice to obtain Dnase1−/− and Dnase1−/−/Dnase1l3−/− mice, respectively. Mice carrying a targeted allele of Cd40lg [B6.129S2-Cd40lgtm1Imx/J] on B6 background were obtained from the The Jackson Laboratory and crossed to obtain Dnase1l3−/−/Cd40lg−/− mice. WT control mice of B6 background were bred in the same animal facility or purchased from Taconic, Inc. and maintained in the same facility. WT mice of BALB/c background for the pregnancy studies were obtained from Taconic, Inc. Pregnant dams were killed and exsanguinated for plasma collection, and pregnancy terms were estimated by embryo morphology.

AD10 TCR transgenic mice on a B10.BR background, specific for pigeon cytochrome c 88–104 and reactive against moth cytochrome c 88–103, were generated by S. Hedrick (University of California at San Diego, La Jolla, CA) and acquired from P. Marrack (National Jewish Center, Denver, CO). B10.A (Taconic), B10.A-Rag2tm1Fwa H2-T18a Tg (5CC7 TCR transgenic, Taconic), B6.129P2-Cd40tm1Kik/J (CD40 knock-out on B6 background, The Jackson Laboratory) and B6.129S2-Cd40lgtm1Imx/J (CD40L knock-out on a B6 background, The Jackson Laboratory) were purchased. B10.A CD40 knock-out mice were generated by breeding B10.A mice to CD40KO and selecting homozygous H-2k CD40KO breeders from the F2 generation and subsequent generations. CD40L KO male mice were generated by breeding 5CC7 male mice to CD40LKO females. T cells from AD10 TCR transgenic mice were used to generate the Th2 and anti-IL-4 Th2 immunological synapse structures shown in Fig 1, while all other experimental results were generated using 5CC7 TCR transgenic mice. Mice were housed in specific-pathogen free conditions at Oregon Health and Science University according to institutional standards, and the research protocols, IS00003102 and IP00000656, were approved by the Oregon Health & Science University Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee.

Six- to ten-week-old C57BL/6, B6.SJL-ptprca (CD45.1+), B6.129S2-Cd4tm1Mak/J (CD4 KO), B6.129S2-H2dlAb1-Ea/J (MHC II KO), B6.129S2-Cd40lgtm1Imx/J (CD40L KO), and B6.129P2-Cd40tm1Kik/J (CD40 KO) animals were purchased from The Jackson Laboratory (Bar Harbor, ME). Mice were immunized with the previously described E1/E3 deleted Ad26, or Ad5HVR48(1 –7 (link)) vectors expressing SIV Gag or SIV Env from the strain SIVmac239, or LCMV GP (11 (link), 34 (link)–36 (link)). Mice were immunized i.m. in the quadriceps with 109 viral particles of each vector in a volume of 100μl divided equally between the two legs. For co-administration of SIV Gag and SIV Env expressing vectors the final injection volume of 100μl was held constant. Mice were challenged with 1.75×105 to 2.5×105 cfu of recombinant Listeria monocytogenes expressing the LCMV epitope GP33-41 (Lm-GP33) by i.v. injection (a kind gift of Dr. Hao Shen)(37 (link)). Precise dose was back calculated following each experiment by plating on BHI-Agar plates, as previously described (38 ). All animal experiments were in accordance with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee guidelines.

For depletion of CX3CR1+ CD8+ T cells, diphtheria toxin (Sigma) (250 ng/dose/mouse) was administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) every day starting from 1 day before neoantigen vaccination. All mice were 7 to 12 weeks old at the beginning of each experiment, maintained under specific pathogen-free, and housed in the Laboratory Animal Resources facility. All animal studies were conducted in accordance with and approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) at the Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center.

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.
