+ T cells were purified from spleens of OT II mice by MACS (Miltenyi Biotec) according to the manufacturer's protocol. Briefly, cells were Fc-blocked and incubated with biotinylated anti-CD4 antibodies (BD Pharmingen). Subsequently, magnetic anti-biotin beads (Miltenyi Biotec) were added and CD4 + T cells were positively selected by running cells along a MACS magnet. CD4 + T cells were labeled with CellTrace Violet (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and afterwards cultured with untreated or BEA treated BMDCs at a 10:1 ratio in 96 well round bottom plates for 3 days and 5 days, respectively. Cell proliferation was measured at day 3 by flow cytometry. At day 5, cell culture supernatants were collected and stored at -80°C. For intracellular detection of IFNγ, Brefeldin A (BD Biosciences) was added to the cells in the last 6 hours before harvesting of the cells at day 5.

Peritoneal neutrophils (herein referred as inflammatory neutrophils) were obtained by i.p. injection of 10% thioglycollate (SIGMA), as described [28 (link)]. Cells were collected 18 h later, by peritoneal washings, counted, and were left to adhere for 1h at 37°C. Non-adherent cells were recovered, washed and examined for purity by both FACS and H&E staining of cytospin preparations. Neutrophils of purity >90% were used in experiments. Bone marrow neutrophils were obtained from the tibia and femur of mice; labeled with neutrophil-specific mAbs anti-Ly6G (clone NIMP-R14-FITC or clone-1A8-PE) (BD PharMingen) and purified by MACS-positive selection, using using anti-FITC or anti-PE magnetic beads (Miltenyi Biotech). Alternatively, neutrophils were labeled with anti-Ly6G (clone 1A8, conjugated to Biotin, Miltenyi Biotech) and purified using anti-Biotin magnetic beads. Purity of neutrophils following either NIMP-R14 or 1A8 positive MACS selection was >95%, as assessed by FACS. Control stainings with CD11b and Ly6C were performed following magnetic separation and neutrophils (inflammatory and bone marrow) were characterized as CD11b+1A8+Ly6Cint and Gr1high (S1 and S2 Figs, respectively).

Murine spleen, thymus, lymph node, bone marrow, and lung were homogenized using a cell strainer, and red blood cells (RBC) were lysed using an RBC lysis buffer. Hepatic lymphocytes were isolated using Percoll (GE Healthcare, Little Chalfont, UK) as previously described (Lee et al., 2012). Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated using Histopaque‐1077 (Sigma‐Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) following the manufacturer's protocol. In several in vitro and in vivo experiments, splenic CD8+ T cells were enriched using anti‐CD8α+ magnetic beads and a MACS LS column (Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany), then sorted into three subsets, Tim‐3+PD‐1+, Tim‐3PD‐1+, and Tim‐3PD‐1 by FACSAria II (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA). The sort purities were more than 95%. To prepare the T‐cell‐depleted antigen presenting cells (APCs), splenocytes were stained with biotinylated anti‐CD3 mAb (Biolegend, San Diego, CA, USA) and antibiotin magnetic beads (Miltenyi Biotec), after which an MACS LD column (Miltenyi Biotec) was used.

Bone marrow was harvested as previously described in both adult and neonate mice. Four to five neonates were pooled to acquire enough cells for sorting. Lin progenitor cells were obtained using biotin–Lin followed by anti-biotin magnetic beads (Miltenyi Biotec, Auburn, CA, USA). To obtain LSK-enriched cells, the Lin cell fraction was incubated with PerCPcy5.5 Streptavidin for Lin, FITC c-kit and PECy7 sca-1 Abs, and cells were sorted using a FACSAria sorter (BD Biosciences).

Single-cell leukocyte suspensions were obtained from spleens of 5- to 10-week-old 5C.C7 Rag2−/−, T-bet−/− or WT mice. Depletion of non-CD4+ T cells was done using biotin-conjugated monoclonal anti-mouse antibodies against CD8α, CD11b, CD45R, CD49b, Ter-119 and anti-biotin magnetic beads (Miltenyi Biotec). Cells were further sorted using α-CD4-PE and α-PE magnetic beads (Miltenyi Biotec) and CD4+CD25-CD44lowCD62Lhigh (all eBioscience) cells were sorted by flow cytometry. All antibodies were used at a concentration of 1–2 μg per 1 × 106 cells. Purities of CD4+CD25-CD44lowCD62Lhigh T cells after isolation were >99.2%.

To isolate specific populations of cells, single-cell suspensions as isolated above are preblocked with anti-CD16/32 for 15 min at 4°C. We then used the biotinylated anti-Gr1 (clone RB6-8C5), anti-CD8β, or anti-CD163 antibodies (all from Thermo Fisher Scientific) to label murine myeloid, CD8+, and human monocytes, respectively. Next, the cells were washed and then incubated with anti-biotin magnetic beads (Miltenyi Biotec) before performing manual positive selection using MS columns (Miltenyi Biotec). Purified cells were analyzed for all downstream metabolic analyses.

Mice were immunized subcutaneously in the rear footpads and/or
base-of-tail with 50 μg of both papain (Calbiochem) and ovalbumin or
50 μg ovalbumin in 20 μg Imject Alum (ThermoFisher) for
Th2-skewing immunizations, 10 μg of both lipopolysaccharide
(InvivoGen) and polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid (PolyI:C) (InvivoGen) and 50
μg of ovalbumin for Th1-skewing immunizations, and 50 μg of
ovalbumin for Th0 immunizations. All immunizations except OVA/Alum were
diluted in sterile PBS and subcutaneously injected at a final volume of 25
μl. N. brasiliensis infection was performed by
injecting mice subcutaneously in the base-of-tail with 500 L3 stage larvae
with 50 μg ovalbumin. Naïve CD4+ T cells were
negatively selected for using Naïve CD4+ T cell isolation
kit (Miltenyi) followed by magnetic cell separation (Miltenyi). Purified
naïve CD4+ T cells were transferred (2.5-5.0 ×
105 cells in 100 μl sterile PBS) into recipient mice
via retro-orbital injection. SIGN-R1+ cells underwent magnetic
cell separation using SIGN-R1-biotin and anti-biotin magnetic beads
(Miltenyi).

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.
