A total of 1 × 106 MC were cultured in 24-well plates and stimulated with either 100 ng/mL Pam2Cys (EMC microcollections, Tübingen, Germany), 100 ng/mL Pam3Cys (EMC microcollections, Tübingen, Germany), 10 ng/mL LPS from s.minnesota (Alexis, Lausen, Swiss), 0.5 µM CpG OD 1668 (Eurofins MWC Operon, Ebersberg, Germany), 10 ng/mL PolyIC (Invivogen, Toulouse, France), 10 ng/mL imiquimod (Invivogen), 10 ng/mL IL-33 (PeproTech, Hamburg, Germany) ionomycin (Sigma-Aldrich/Merck) or phorbol-12-myristat-13-acetate (PMA) (Sigma-Aldrich/Merck) for 24 h at 37 °C in MC-medium. Supernatants were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for IL-10 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA, detection limit 15.6–1000 pg/mL), IL-6 (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA, detection limit 15.6–1000 pg/mL), TNF-a (R&D Systems, detection limit 10.9–700 pg/mL), LegendPlex Mouse Inflammation panel (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA) and LegendPlex Mouse Th Cytokine panel (Biolegend).

Multiparametric Flow Cytometry Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Single-cell suspensions were incubated with the Fc-receptor blocking reagent (Miltenyi Biotec) and then stained with immunofluorescence-conjugated mAbs following the manufacturer’s instructions (Table S5). For transcription factor staining, the cells were first surface stained before fixation and permeabilization using the transcription factor staining kit (eBioscience), followed by intranuclear staining. For intracellular cytokine staining, CD8+ T cells (1.0 × 105 cells) were stimulated in vitro with 50 ng/mL Phorbol-12-myristat-13-acetate (PMA, Sigma-Aldrich) and 1 μg/mL Ionomycin (Sigma-Aldrich) for 5 h in the presence of 5 μg/mL GolgiPlug. Cell surface molecules were stained before fixation and permeabilization, using the fixation/permeabilization kit (BD Biosciences), followed by intracellular staining. Cell viability was determined using the Annexin V apoptosis detection kits (BioLegend), according to manufacturer’s instructions. The cell samples were analyzed on a flow cytometer (FACS Canto II or Accuri C6; BD Biosciences), and data were analyzed using FlowJo software v10.7 (Tree Star Inc.).

Brain Lymphocyte Isolation and Analysis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
C57BL/6 and T-bet−/− mice were either mock-infected with PBS (2 mice per strain) or infected with 105 f.f.u. GAS i.n. (5 mice per strain). Eight days after infection, mice were anesthetized, trans-cardially perfused and brains quickly dissected in RPMI medium on ice. Brain lymphocytes were isolated on a Percoll (Sigma-Aldrich, Saint-Louis, MO) gradient, stained with fluorescently labeled antibodies for lymphocyte markers and activation markers (Table II) and analyzed by flow cytometry. To measure IFN-γ production, cells were either stained intracellular for IFN-γ ex vivo or cultured with and without 4h stimulation with A23187 ionophore (Fisher, Hampton, NH) and Phorbol 12-Myristat 13 Acetate (PMA) (Sigma-Aldrich, Saint-Louis, MO) then the Golgi plug Brefeldin A (BD Bioscience, San Jose, CA) overnight. Fluorescence was assessed on a Guava system (Millipore, Billerica, MA) and data analyses were performed using FlowJo software (Tree Stars Inc., Ashland, OR).

Macrophage Polarization Using THP-1 Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Nonadherent THP-1 cells (ATCC® TIB-202™) were grown in an RPMI 1640 medium (Roswell Park Memorial Institute) supplemented by 10% v/v of fetal calf serum (FCS) uncompleted (Sigma-Aldrich, St Quentin Fallavier, France), 1% v/v antibiotics (penicillin at 100 U·mL−1 et streptomycin at 100 µg·mL−1, Sigma-Aldrich) and 2-mercaptoethanol for a final concentration of 0.05 nM (Sigma-Aldrich).
THP-1 monocytes were differentiated into adherent macrophages (M0) by adding 320 nM phorbol-12-myristat-13-acetate (PMA) (Sigma-Aldrich). At 24 h post-PMA incubation, the culture medium was changed by adding 100 ng·mL−1 lipopolysaccharide (LPS, R&D systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA) and 20 ng·mL−1 interferon gamma human recombinant (IFN-γ, R&D systems) for an M1 polarization. For M2, 20 ng·mL−1 interleukine-4 human recombinant (IL-4, R&D systems) and 20 ng·mL−1 interleukine-13 human recombinant (IL-13, R&D systems) were added. After 72 h, the cells were used for experiments.

Spatiotemporal Regulation of Cell Signaling

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Morpholinos were obtained from Gene-Tools and dissolved in distilled water. Morpholinos (MOs) targeting cdkn1a/p21 (3 ng/embryo) (Sidi et al., 2008) , vegfab (5 ng/ embryo) (Bahary et al., 2007) and a standard control MO (Hasan et al., 2017) have been described previously. To inhibit PI3K, embryos were dechorionated and incubated in 10 uM LY-294002 hydrochloride (SIGMA) for 10 hours prior to imaging. To specifically inhibit PI3K 110 alpha, embryos were dechorionated and incubated in 10 uM, 25 uM or 50 uM of GDC-0326 (Cayman Chemical). To activate ERK signalling, embryos were dechorionated and incubated in 0.25 uM Phorbol-12myristat-13-acetate (PMA) (SIGMA) for 4 hours prior to imaging.

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.
