PBMCs were isolated by density gradient centrifugation using Histopaque (Sigma, Dorset, UK), frozen and stored in liquid nitrogen before staining. Intracellular cytokine staining of Th17 and Th1-cells was carried out using BD Cytofix/Cytoperm kit (BD Bioscience, Oxford, UK). Cells were stimulated with 100 ng/mL phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) (Sigma, Dorset, UK) and 1 μg/mL ionomycin (Sigma, Dorset, UK) for 4 h in the presence of Golgi STOP and Golgi plug. After surface staining using CD3-BV605, CD4-APC and CD8-BV510 antibodies (Biolegend, London, UK), cells were fixed and permeabilised, then stained with IL-17A-FITC (eBiosciences, Ireland, UK) and interferon (IFN)-γ-AF700 (Biolegend). Dead cells were excluded using Fixable Viability Dye eFluor 780 (eBiosciences). Representative FACS plots of the gating strategy and intracellular staining are shown in online supplementary figure S1.

HLA-DRB1*15:01 monomers with thrombin-cleavable tethered CLIP peptide and Jun/Fos dimerization domains were produced in insect cells and purified by FPLC. The protein was biotinylated, peptide exchanged with VZV gE peptide 54 (TSPLLRYAAWTGGLA) and VZV IE63 peptide 24 (QRAIERYAGAETAEY) and tetramerized using PE- and APC-labeled streptavidin, respectively.

NK cells were enriched from PBMCs by the depletion of unwanted cells using biotinylated antibodies and MoJo Streptavidin Nanobeads (BioLegend); more details are available in SI Appendix. The enriched NK cells were stained with CD3-BV605 (clone: UCHT-1, BioLegend), CD19-BV605 (clone: SJ25C1, BioLegend), CD20-BV605 (clone: 2H7, BioLegend), HLA-DR-BV510 (clone: L243, BioLegend), CD56-BV421 (clone: 5.1H11, BioLegend) and NKp46-BV421 (clone: 9E2, BioLegend) and sorted as CD56+NKp46+CD3CD19CD20HLA-DR cells. Sorted XCR1 and XCR1+ cDC1 and NK cells were cocultured in a 1:5 ratio and either stimulated with a cocktail of pIC (2.5 µg/mL), R848 (2.5 µg/mL), and CpG (2.5 µg/mL) or cultured in DC-medium alone. For some experiments, DCs and NK cells were separated in Transwell plates (96 well, 0.4 µm insert). NK cells were cultured in the well, while DCs were added to insert. In order to analyze the influence of secreted cytokines on NK cells, NK cells were cultured alone and supernatants of stimulated DCs were added corresponding to a 1:5 DC:NK cell ratio. After 18 h, cells were harvested and analyzed by flow cytometry for activation of NK cells (CD69). The supernatants were stored at −80 °C until analysis with LEGENDplex Human Interferon Panel (BioLegend) for secretion of IFNγ.

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.
