The cells isolated from spleen tissues of vaccinated mice and controls were abundant in yield. Splenocytes (2.5 × 106) were incubated with 0.1 × 106 PFU live ZIKV FSS13025 for 24 h. BD GolgiPlug (BD Bioscience) was added to block protein transport at the final 5 h of incubation. Cells were stained with antibodies for CD3 (25-0031-81; 10 µg/ml), CD4 (17-0041-82; 10 µg/ml), or CD8 (11-0081-82, 10 µg/ml), fixed in 2% paraformaldehyde, and permeabilized with 0.5% saponin before adding anti-IFN-γ (12-7311-82; 10 µg/ml) or control rat IgG1 (12-4301-82; 10 µg/ml). All antibodies were purchased from e-Bioscience. Samples were processed with a C6 Flow Cytometer instrument. Dead cells were excluded on the basis of forward and side light scatter. Data were analyzed with a CFlow Plus Flow Cytometer (BD Biosciences).

Lung tissues were digested with 0.05% collagenase type IV (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) in RPMI 1640 Medium (Gibco, Billings, MT, USA) at 37 °C with 5% CO2 for 45 min, and a single-cell suspension was prepared by passing the lung homogenates through a 70 μm cell strainer followed by red blood cell lysis. Splenocytes or lung leukocytes were stained with antibodies for CD3 and TCRγδ (e-Biosciences, San Diego, CA, USA). After staining, the cells were fixed with 2% paraformaldehyde in PBS and examined using a C6 flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA). Live cells were enriched on the basis of forward and side light scatter. Data were analyzed with a CFlow Plus flow cytometer (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA).

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.
