Immune Cell Characterization in Ischemic Mice

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Blood, spleen, peritoneal leukocytes, and mesenteric lymph nodes were harvested from C57BL/6, BALB/c, and LDLR−/− mice. Blood, spleen, bone marrow, and nondraining lymph nodes were harvested before (pt) and 1 day after induction of HLI in LDLR−/−/CCCR7−/− and LDLR−/− mice. Draining lymph nodes were dissected from the ipsilateral inguinal region, nondraining form the contralateral iguinal region. Total circulating leukocytes were measured using a KX‐21N Hematology Analyzer (Sysmex). Tissues were minced through a 40‐μm cell strainer (BD Biosciences) to obtain single‐cell suspensions, which were resuspended in Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's Medium (Lonza) with 2% FCS. For DC‐specific cell surface staining, the spleen and lymph nodes were first perfused with collagenase (1 mg/mL) and DNase (0.02 mg/mL) for 10 minutes and minced. Erythrocytes were lysed and samples for intracellular staining were permeabilized. Fluorochrome‐conjugated monoclonal antibodies specific for CD3, CD4, CD8, CD11c, CD11b, CD19, CD25, CD86, CD115, FoxP3, Ly6C, Ly6G, B220, DX5, MHCII, CCR7, CCR2, F4/80, CD62L, IL12, IL10, NK1.1, and Tbet were used.

PBMC were stained for Treg cells with anti-CD4, anti-CD25, and anti-CD127 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) (Biolegend, San Diego, CA) on the cell surface. For detection of the transcriptional factor FoxP3, cells were fixed with fixation and permeabilization buffers (eBioscience, San Diego, CA) and were then stained with anti-FoxP3 mAb (eBioscience). The expression of IL-17 and IFN-γ was analyzed by intracellular cytokine staining.8 (link),20 (link) PBMC were cultured in Iscove's modified Dulbecco's medium (BioWhittaker, Walkersville, MD) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA) and stimulated for 5 hours with Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate PMA (50 ng/mL) and ionomycin (500 ng/mL) in the presence of brefeldin A (10 μg/mL, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO). Cells were first stained for the surface antigen CD4 (Biolegend) and then fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.5% saponin, followed by intracellular staining with anti-IL-17 and anti-IFN-γ mAbs (Biolegend).

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.
