For macrophages culture in vitro, BM cells were isolated from femurs and tibias of 4 to 6‐week‐old WT and Irf8/ mice, and then passed through a 70 µm cell strainer to obtain single‐cell suspension. After lysed with red blood cell lysis buffer, total BM cells were centrifuged and resuspended at 106 cells mL−1 in culture medium consisting of DMEM (Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium), 10% FBS (Fetal Bovine Serum), penicillin, streptomycin, amphotericin and 2‐mercaptoethanol (0.5 mM) supplemented with murine M‐CSF (50 ng mL−1, R&D) for 7 days. On the fourth day of culture, half of the medium was replaced by fresh complete medium. The identity of macrophage was confirmed by flow‐cytometric analysis using fluorochrome conjugated antibodies against CD11b, and F4/80 (BM8).
For NK cell isolation, BM cells were isolated into a single‐cell suspension and stained with biotinylated antibodies against NK1.1 (PK136) at 4 °C for 25 min, then incubated with Streptavidin Microbeads (Miltenyi Biotec) to deplete NK1.1 negative cells. The purity of NK cells was verified by flow‐cytometric analysis using fluorochrome conjugated antibodies against CD3ε, CD49b (DX5) and NK1.1. The same procedure was applied for spleen T cell and B cell isolation, except that the antibody was replaced by biotinylated antibody against CD3ε or CD19.

Derivation of Murine and Human Macrophages

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mouse BMDMs were derived from bone marrow cells of C57BL/6 mice (NCR-Fredrick). Briefly, after lysis of red blood cells, bone marrow cells were cultured in DMEM media containing 10% FBS and 50 ng/ml murine M-CSF (R&D Systems) for 5 days. The cells were then trypsinized and plated for treatment or transfection. Peritoneal macrophages were elicited from C57BL/6 mice by i.p. injection of 1 ml sterile 4% Brewer thioglycollate. Cells were harvested 4 days later by peritoneal lavage and plated on plates. After 1 hour at 37°C, non-adherent cells were removed by washing and adherent macrophages were used for treatment or transfection. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were purchased from ZenBio Inc. PBMCs were cultured in DMEM media containing 10% FBS and 50 ng/ml human M-CSF (R&D Systems) for 5 days. The cells were then trypsinized and plated for treatment or transfection. The animal protocol was approved by the UAB Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC).

For assessment of phagocytosis, 1 × 105 cells were seeded in 12-well plates in standard medium. After >12 hours of settling, cells were incubated for 2 hours with pHRodo Green E. coli or pHRodo Red S. aureus BioParticles (Thermo Fisher Scientific) at a concentration of 1:20. Phagocytosis was performed in phenol-free RPMI 1640 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) supplemented with 10% FCS, 2% HEPES (AppliChem, Darmstadt, Germany), 1% L-glutamine (Invitrogen, Darmstadt, Germany) and 10 pg/mL murine M-CSF (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA). Subsequently, cells were washed extensively, and the amount of incorporated BioParticles was evaluated by flow cytometry.

Generation of Murine and Human Macrophages

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
To generate murine BM-derived MΦs, BM cells were collected by crushing the hind leg bones in a mortar in FBS-free RPMI-1640. BM cells were collected by passing the suspension through a cell strainer. Red blood cells were lysed, and cells incubated in FBS-free RPMI-1640 for 2 h. Adherent cells were then cultured in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% FBS and 5 ng/mL murine M-CSF (R&D Systems, Cat No. 416-ML) for 7 days into MΦs. The MΦs were then co-cultured with 5TGM1 cells for another 48 h to generate MM-MΦs.
To generate human peripheral blood mononuclear cells-derived MΦs, mononuclear cells from healthy donor peripheral blood were collected through Ficoll density gradient centrifugation. They were then incubated in FBS-free RPMI-1640 for 2 hours and adherent cells cultured in RPMI-1640 supplemented with 10% FBS and 10 ng/mL human M-CSF (R&D Systems, Cat No. 216-MC) for 7 days into MΦs. Human MΦs were co-cultured with ARP-1 cells for another 48 h to generate MM-MΦs. Ethical approval to use human samples was granted by the Ethical Committee of West China Hospital, Sichuan University.

Macrophages were generated by plating floating progenitors onto low adherence plates at 0.5-1×106 cells per 3 cm dish in IMDM supplemented with 10% FCS, 100 units/ml Penicillin and 100 µg/ml Streptomycin, 1 mM glutamine, 0.15 mM MTG, 10% M-CSF conditioned media, 5% IL3 conditioned media and 10 ng/ml murine M-CSF (R&D Systems). Macrophages were usually harvested after 7 days by first gently washing the cells with PBS to remove any non-adherent cells and then trypsinizing the adherent layer. Cell purity was checked by FACS for expression of F4/80 (eBioscience 17-4801) and CD11b (eBioscience 12-0112). RNA was prepared by lysing the macrophages in TRIzol.

Primary murine microglial cultures were prepared as previously described (Fleisher‐Berkovich et al, 2010). Briefly, mixed glial cultures were prepared from the whole brain devoid meninges and cerebellum of P0‐2 mice and cultured in DMEM with Glutamax I (Life Technologies), supplemented with 10% (v/v) FCS, 100 U/ml penicillin and 100 μg/ml streptomycin. About 50% of the medium was replaced every other day, and 10 ng/ml murine M‐CSF (R&D System) was supplemented at day 7 in culture. After 10 days in culture, cells were shaken using horizontal orbital shaker at 200 rpm for 30 min to isolate microglia. The medium containing microglia was pelleted at 200 g for 8 min and reseeded to corresponding plates for experiments. Cell identity was confirmed using anti‐CD68 (Fig 3D) and anti‐CD11b (Fig EV1B) antibodies.

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.
