To isolate DCs, spleens were harvested, incubated 30 min at 37 °C in RPMI, 2% FBS, 20 mM HEPES, 400 U/ml type IV collagenase (Worthington Biochemical Corporation) and disrupted to generate single cell suspensions. Red blood cells were lysed with ACK buffer (Lonza), and the resulting cell suspensions were filtered through a 70 μm mesh into PBS supplemented with 0.5% BSA and 2 mM EDTA (PBE). DCs were obtained by magnetic cell separation (MACS) using anti-CD11c beads (Miltenyi Biotec), as per manufacturer’s instructions. To isolate CD4+ T cells and B cells, spleens were processed as above, except for collagenase digestion, which was not performed. CD4+ T cells were isolated using CD4+ T cell isolation kit (Miltenyi Biotec) while B cells were obtained by negative selection using anti-CD43 beads (Miltenyi Biotec), as per manufacturer’s instructions. To isolate Igλ+ B cells form B1-8hi mice, B cells were stained with anti-Igκ PE antibody and subsequently purified by negative selection using a combination of anti-CD43 and anti-PE magnetic beads (Miltenyi Biotec).

Whole spleens were mechanically disassociated through a 40 m filter followed by red blood cell lysis with ammonium-chloride-potassium lysing buffer. Naïve mature B cells were isolated from spleen cells by immunomagnetic negative selection with anti-CD43 (Miltenyi Biotec). B cells were cultured in RPMI-1640 medium (Corning) supplemented with 10% FBS (Gibco), 1% penicillin/streptomycin (Corning), 1% MEM non-essential amino acids (Gibco), 1% sodiumpyruvate (Corning), 1% L-glutamine (Gibco), and -mercaptoethanol (50 M). B cells were stimulated with 1 ug/ml CD40L (BD Pharmingen) and 25 ng/ml IL-4 (R&D Systems) or with 0.1 ug/ml CD40L, 10 ng/ml IL-4, and 5 ng/ml IL-5 (R&D Systems) to monitor B cell processes during B cell differentiation or to monitor differentiation with increased plasma cell (PC) frequency, respectively (Shi et al., 2015) . For isolation of in vitro generated PCs used for Seahorse Extracellular Flux Analyzer assays, cultures stimulated for 5 days with CD40L, IL-4, and IL-5 were enriched for live cells using a dead cell removal kit (Miltenyi Biotec) followed by CD138-APC (BD Pharmingen) staining. CD138 + PCs were enriched by positive immunomagnetic enrichment of APC (Miltenyi Biotec). For Caspase 3/7, Mitrotracker Green, and TMRE staining experiments, in vitro generated PCs were isolated by immunomagnetic positive selection with anti-CD138 (Miltenyi Biotec).

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.
