For intracellular cytokine staining, murine cells were restimulated after 72 h of culture with PMA (50 ng ml−1), Ionomycin (1 µg ml−1, both from Sigma-Aldrich) and brefeldin A (5 µg ml−1; Biolegend) for 4 h and fixed with 2% para-formaldehyde. Staining of transcription factors was performed without restimulation using the FOXP3/Fixation-Kit (eBioscience, 00–5521–00). Following antibodies were used for murine cell-analysis: anti-CD8a (eBiosciences, 53–6.7), anti-CD44 (eBiosciences, IM7), anti-CD62L (eBiosciences, MEL-14), anti-IFN-y (Biolegend, XMG1.2), anti-IL-17A (eBiosciences, eBio17B7), anti-RORyt (eBiosciences, B2D) or anti-T-BET (eBiosciences, eBio4B10). The cells were measured on FACSCalibur or FACSAria™ III (both BD) and analyzed with FlowJo Software (FlowJo LLC). For phospho-flow the cells were harvested after 48 h of culture, rested for 4 h and treated with 100U/ml rhIL-2 for 2 h, fixed and permeabilised using Lyse/Fix-Buffer (557870, BD) and Perm-BufferIII (558050, BD) then stained with anti-P-STAT5Y694 (eBiosciences, SRBCZX), anti-P-AKTS473 (Cell Signaling, D9E), anti-P-AKTY308 (Cell Signaling, D25E6), anti-P-FOXO1/3a (Cell Signaling, #9464) or anti-P-S6S235/236 (Cell Signaling, D57.2.2E).

Reagents were conjugated to Pacific Blue, Brilliant Violet (BV) 421, BV510, BV711, PE, PE‐Cy7, PerCP–eFluor 710, allophycocyanin– eFluor 780 and Alexa Fluor 700. Streptavidin PE‐Cy7 (eBioscience) was used to detect biotinylated antibodies. A Foxp3 fixation kit (eBioscience) was used in conjunction with anti‐Foxp3 (FJK‐16s, eBioscience) or the BD Cytofix/Cytoperm Kit (BD Biosciences) to preserve the GFP signal. Data were acquired using a BD LSR Fortessa and FACSDiva 2.6 software and analysed using FloJo software (Tree Star).

Mice were sacrificed, and spleens were harvested at the indicated time points after immunization. Splenocytes were isolated from red blood cells by ammonium-chloride-potassium (ACK) lysis buffer (Gibco) and resuspended in FACS buffer (5% FBS in 1× PBS). Cells were Fc blocked (clone 2.4G2; BD Biosciences) and stained with antibody master mix in FACS buffer for 30 min in the dark at 4°C. Secondary stains, where applicable, were also performed for 30 min in the dark at 4°C. After surface staining, cells were washed and fixed in Foxp3 fixation kit (eBioscience) for intranuclear staining or BD cytofix/cytoperm (BD Biosciences) for ICS or surface staining.

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.
