Nine days after the protein boost (on day 21 after birth), the animals were euthanized, and the spleens and lungs were collected aseptically. The cell preparations were conducted as previously described [26 (link)]. The cell suspensions were adjusted to 1 × 106 cells/mL and incubated with anti-CD28 (1 µg/mL, clone: CD82.2, BD Pharmingen™), anti-CD3 (1 µg/mL, clone: OKT3, BD Pharmingen™), and rPspA-PdT (5 µg/mL) for 48 h at 37 °C and 5% CO2. The supernatant sample was collected, and the concentrations of cytokines (IFN-γ, IL-17, TNF-α, IL-10, and IL-6) were evaluated via Cytometric Bead Array (BD Pharmingen™) using the Mouse Th1/Th2/Th17 Cytokine Kit.
Additionally, to investigate the phenotype of memory B and T cells in the lungs and spleen, the remaining cells were labeled with specific antibodies: (i) Memory B cells: anti-B220-FITC antibody (clone: RA3-6B2, BD Pharmingen™), anti-CD19-BV421 antibody (clone: 1D3, BD Horizon™), and anti-CD27-PerCP.Cy5.5 antibody (clone: LG.3A10, BD Pharmingen™); (ii) Memory T cells: anti-CD4-APC.Cy7 antibody (clone: GK1.5, BD Pharmingen™), anti-CD8-PE.Cy7 antibody (clone:53-6.7, BD Pharmingen™), anti-CD62L-FITC antibody (clone: MEL-14, BD Pharmingen™), and anti-CD44-APC antibody (clone: IM7, BD Pharmingen™) for 30 min.

For ALDH/CD44 staining, ALDH activity was detected with an ALDEFLUORTM kit (Stem Cell Technologies) according to the manufacturer's instructions. CD44 expression was detected with an anti‐CD44‐APC antibody (BD Biosciences) as previously described.[18 (link)
] For the analysis of cell surface proteins, the cells were incubated with antibodies in a staining wash buffer for 30 min in the dark.

The cells were then washed and resuspended in 0.5 mL of staining buffer. The antibodies used included APC‐anti‐human CD3, PE‐anti‐human CD4, FITC‐anti‐human CD8, PE‐anti‐human IFNγ, FITC‐anti‐human FOXP3, BV785‐anti‐human PD‐1, BV605‐anti‐human TIM3, APC/CY7‐anti‐mouse CD45, Percp5.5‐anti‐mouse CD3, FITC‐anti‐mouse CD4, PE/CY7‐anti‐mouse CD8a, and pacific blue‐anti‐mouse FOXP3, Brilliant Violet 785 anti‐mouse/human CD44, Brilliant Violet 605 anti‐mouse CD279 (PD‐1), PE/Cyanine7 anti‐mouse CD366 (Tim‐3), PE anti‐mouse CD62L, APC/Fire 750 anti‐mouse CD3, Brilliant Violet 510 anti‐mouse CD8a, Alexa Fluor 700 anti‐mouse CD45. All antibodies used were purchased from Biolegend. The cells were analyzed using a BD LSRFortessa Cell Analyzer (BD Biosciences). The results were analyzed using FlowJo software (Tree Star).

After infections and/or treatments, cells were resuspended in PBS with 0.5% bovine serum albumin and 2 mM EDTA buffer. Autophagic flux was directly measured as previously described [31, 32] . The appropriate forward/side scatter profile was used to exclude non-viable cells. All mCherry-positive cells were included in the gate to measure the mCherry/ GFP ratio, with a scaling of 25%. For CD44 quantification, cells were stained with anti-CD44-APC antibody (1:25 each, BD Pharmingen, San Jose, CA, USA). Flow cytometry experiments were performed using BD LRSFortessa and BD FACS CantoII instruments, and DIVA software (both from Becton Dickinson, Le Pont de Claix, France). Results were based on the analysis of 10,000 cells.

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.
