Bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) were generated by culturing bone marrow cell suspensions in 20ng/ml recombinant GM-CSF (Peptrotech) for 10 days. For necroptosis assays, BMDCs were treated with 0.1 μM Smac mimetic (ChemieTek) and 10 μM zVAD (Enzo). For apoptosis assays, BMDCs were treated with cyclohexmide (0.5 μg/ml), TNFα (10 ng/ml), IFNγ (10 ng/ml) or with FasL and control vesicles purified from N2-mFasL and N2-neo cell supernatant (diluted 1/40), as previously described (24 (link)). Splenic DC were isolated from mice following treatment of the Flt3L producing melanoma line B16, using a CD11c positive selection kit (Stemcell Technologies).
To examine T cell proliferation, purified CD11c+ splenic DC from CD11cCre and Ripk1DC KO mice were incubated with OVA323–339 or control OVA257–264 peptide for 1 h. CD4+ T cells were isolated from spleens of OT-II mice using CD4 positive selection beads (Invitrogen). Isolated CD4+ cells were labeled with 0.5 μM CFSE (Invitrogen) and incubated with splenic DCs for 72 h. CFSE staining was examined in viable CD4+ cells by flow cytometry.

CD4+ T cells from mouse LNs and spleens were isolated using CD4+-negative selection (Stemcell Technologies, Cambridge, MA), and were cultured as previously described (1). Briefly CD4+CD25Foxp3GFP WT or Ltα−/− cells with >98% purity were sorted using a FACS Aria II (BD Biosciences). The sorted GFP naïve CD4 T cells (nCD4) (5 × 104) were then co-cultured with T cell-depleted, 800 rad-irradiated C57BL/6 splenocytes as stimulator cells (5 × 104) in U-bottom 96-well plates for 5 days at 37 °C in 5% CO2, with IL-2 (20 ng/mL; eBioscience, San Diego, CA), anti-CD3ɛ mAb (1 μg/mL, clone 145-2C11; eBioscience) for activated T cells (aCD4); and human TGF-β1 (10 ng/mL; eBioscience) for induced regulatory T cells (iTreg). Cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 10% FBS, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 2 mM l-glutamine, 100 IU/mL penicillin, 100 μg /mL streptomycin, non-essential amino acids and 2 × 10−5 M 2-ME (Sigma-Aldrich). BMDCs were generated as described51 (link). Briefly, bone marrow (BM) cells of wild-type mice were treated with 10 ng/mL GM-CSF (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN) for 10 days in Petri dishes, and the loosely attached cells were collected and CD11c+ DC were purified by CD11c-positive selection kit (Stemcell Technologies).

Single-cell suspensions of bone marrow (BM) cells were collected from tibias and femurs of C57BL/6 mice. The BM cells were placed in 10cm dish and cultured with complete RPMI 1640 medium containing 20 ng/mL recombinant mouse GM-CSF (BioLegend). Fresh medium with was added into the culture on days 3 and 6. The BMDCs were harvested Day 7. CD8+ T cells were isolated from lymph nodes and spleens of OT-1 transgenic mice with a negative CD8+ T cell isolation kit (Stemcell). MC38-OVA cells pretreated with 200 nM 6-thio-dG for 4 h. Then the drug was washed out, tumor cells were continued to culture for 72 h and were harvested on the same day as BMDC harvest. Then MC38-OVA cells were co-cultured with BMDC for overnight. Supernatant was collected for IFN-β ELISA test (PBL). BMDCs were sorted with CD11c positive selection kit (Stemcell) and co-cultured with OT-1 CD8+ T cells for 48 h. Supernatants were collected and IFN-γ was measured by cytometric bead array assay (BD Biosciences).

Female C57BL/6 mice (n = 3-5/ experiment) were euthanized and bone marrow was collected from the tibia and femur under aseptic conditions. BMDC were prepared as described previously with slight modifications [26 (link)]. At day 7 of culture, all cells were pooled and enriched using CD11c positive selection kit (Stem Cell Technologies, Vancouver). Following enrichment (purity > 85% by flow cytometry), BMDC were cultured in 96 well plates and treated with miR-155 mimic and/or inhibitor as described below.

B16-EGFR-SIY bearing mice were treated with 25 μg of anti-EGFR, or anti-EGFR-IFNβ intratumoral injection on days 14 and 17. Four days later, draining lymph node was digested with 1mg/ml of collagenase VIII (Sigma) and 200ug/ml DNase I (Sigma) at 37°C for 15 minutes. DCs were purified by CD11c positive selection Kit (Stemcell). Approximately 1×105 DCs were mixed together with purified 2×105 2C T cells with or without 5μg/mL of SIY peptide to restimulate the T cells. Two days later, the supernatants were collected, and IFNγ was measured by CBA assay (BD Bioscience).

BMDC and MC38 treatment were same as “In vitro co-culture of bone marrow dendritic cells”. 6 h after co-culture, DC was isolated with CD11c positive selection kit (Stemcell). Protein sample preparation and immunoblot procedures were performed as previously described (Liu et al., 2019 ). Proteins were detected with rabbit monoclonal antibodies for pSTING (Cell signaling, 72971), STING (Cell signaling, 50494), pTBK1 (Cell signaling, 5483), TBK1 (Cell signaling, 3504). Protein loading was determined with antibodies against with Cyclophilin A (Cell signaling, 2175). Anti-rabbit was used for secondary antibody (Cell signaling, 7074). X-ray film (GeneMate, F-9024–8X10) was used to develop the membranes. Clarity Max Western ECL Substrate (Biorad, 1705062) or Supersignal West PicoPlus Chemiluminescent Substrate (Thermoscientific, 34577) was used for chemiluminescent western blot.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
NOD mice were injected intraperitoneally with keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH; Sigma), 200 μg/mouse as a foreign antigen, and were emulsified in Alum (Pierce). Mice were killed 7 days after immunization, and CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were isolated from the splenocytes by magnetic bead–based negative selection. DCs were purified from IRAK-M−/− and WT NOD mice by a CD11c positive selection kit (Stemcell Technologies). DCs were or were not loaded with KLH (Sigma) 50 μg/mL for 5 h in complete medium at 37°C. Antigen-loaded DCs were then washed with PBS twice before coculturing with T cells. CD4+ and CD8+ T cells from immunized mice were cocultured with DCs from IRAK-M−/− NOD or WT NOD mice, with or without KLH, at a 2:1 ratio in complete medium. 3H-thymidine was added during the last 16 h of a 5-day culture, to determine antigen-specific T-cell proliferation responses by 3H-thymidine incorporation. In DC vaccine experiments, purified DCs from immunized mice were preloaded with KLH, as described above, and 106 cells were injected intravenously into WT NOD mice. The mice were killed 7 days after DC vaccination, and splenocytes were harvested and placed 105/well with KLH (1 μg/mL) in complete medium. Proliferative responses were determined by 3H-thymidine incorporation. 3H-thymidine was added during the last 16 h of a 5-day culture.

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.
