Primary OPC cultures were isolated from naïve P0 to P1 neonatal C57/BL6 mice cortices as previously described by Chen et al. (2007 (link)), with minor modifications (Barateiro & Fernandes, 2014 (link)). Briefly, a mixed glial culture isolated from neonatal mice was grown for 8 days in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM) low glucose (Biological Industries, Israel) supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum (Biological Industries, Israel), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Biological Industries, Israel), 1 mM L‐glutamine (Sigma‐Aldrich, Israel) and 0.6% Gentamycin Sulfate (Biological Industries, Israel). Culture medium was replaced every 2 days. After 8 days, microglia were detached by 30 min shaking at 140 rpm using an orbital shaker. After medium was removal, a new fresh culture medium was added, and OPCs at the top of the astrocyte monolayer were detached by shaking for 18 h at 200 rpm. Cells were plated in DMEM/F‐12 (Rhenium, Israel) supplemented with 1% B27 supplement (Rhenium, Israel) and 0.6% Gentamycin Sulfate (Biological Industries, Israel). Fibroblast growth factor‐2 (FGF‐2; 20 ng/ml; R&D systems) and Platelet‐derived growth factor (PDGF‐AA; 20 ng/ml; R&D systems) were added to cultures daily unless otherwise specified. Timeline is depicted in Figure S1a.

1×105 cells/well (2 mL) of triple negative breast cancer mouse cell-line (4T1; ATCC CRL2539) were seeded in 6-well plates in a RPMI 1640 medium (Sigma-Aldrich), supplemented with 10% heat inactivated Fetal Bovine Serum (Biological Industries, Beit-Haemek, Israel), 2 mM of L-Glutamine Solution, 10 U/mL of penicillin G sodium salt and 0.01 mg/mL of streptomycin sulfate for 24 hours at 37 °C in a 5% CO2 humid atmosphere. The following day, the 4T1 cells were washed, to remove remnants of antibiotics, and Salmonella at multiplicity of infection (MOI) 100:1 was added for 3h. The 4T1 cells were washed with PBS and gentamycin sulfate at concentration of 20μg/mL (Biological industries, Israel) to remove external bacteria. Cells were incubated with Hoescht 33342 (Sigma-Aldrich) and Dil (life technologies, Israel) to stain the nucleus and the cell’s membrane, respectively. Images were obtained using Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy Zeiss LSM 700 and ZEN imaging software integrated to a three dimensional (Z-stack) image.

Mouse primary astrocytes were isolated from naïve P0 to P1 neonatal C57/BL6 mice cortices as previously described by Chen et al. [84 (link)], with minor modifications [85 (link),86 (link)]. Briefly, a mixed glial culture isolated from neonatal mice was grown for 8 days in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM) low glucose (Biological Industries, Kibbutz Beit-Haemek, Israel) supplemented with 5% fetal bovine serum (Biological Industries, Kibbutz Beit-Haemek, Israel), 1 mM sodium pyruvate (Biological Industries, Kibbutz Beit-Haemek, Israel), 1 mM L-glutamine (Sigma–Aldrich, Rehovot, Israel) and 0.6% Gentamycin Sulfate (Biological Industries, Kibbutz Beit-Haemek, Israel). Culture medium was replaced every 2 days. After 8 days, microglia were detached by 30 min shaking at 140 rpm using an orbital shaker. After medium was removal, a new fresh culture medium was added, and OPCs at the top of the astrocyte monolayer were detached by shaking for 18 h at 200 rpm. Media was replaced and astrocytes were grown for further 7 days. Cells were detached from flasks using TrypLE (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA). All cultures expressed high level of GFAP (mean of 96.6% GFAP+ cells, Figure S1).

NIH3T3 (Mouse embryo fibroblast), RAW (RAW267.4, Murine monocytes/macrophages-like) and 293FT (Human embryonal kidney) were obtained from ATCC, Manassas, Virginia, USA (CRL-1658, TIB-71 and CRL-3216, respectively). These cell lines were maintained in DMEM supplemented with 10% FCS, 2.5 μg/ml Amphotericin and 50 μg/ml Gentamycin Sulfate (Biological Industries, Beit-Haemek, Israel). Mouse iPS cell line (miPS-B6-GFP) was provided by Prof. Lior Gepstein. Undifferentiated colonies were cultured on mitotically inactivated mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) feeder layer, as previously described [11 (link)]. Cells were maintained in DMEM supplemented with 15% FCS (Biological Industries), 0.1% leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) (Millipore), 1mM L-glutamine, 0.1mM Mercaptoethanol, and 1% nonessential amino acid stock (all from Invitrogen).

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.
