Sera samples for analysis were firstly treated with receptor-destroying enzyme (RDE) (Denka Seiken, Tokyo, Japan) at 37 °C for 18 h followed by the inactivation of the RDE via incubation at 56 °C for 30 min.
Wells of a 96-well ELISA plate were coated with purified influenza B/Brisbane/60/2008 and B/Florida/4/2006 HA protein (400 ng/well) overnight at 4 °C in PBS. The plates were then washed twice with PBS and 100 µL of sera treated with RDE at 37 °C for 30 min. Plates were then washed five times with PBS and 106 freshly isolated murine PBMCs were added to each well. PBMCs isolated from NC group mice using Ficoll-Paque (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Uppsala, Sweden ) were washed and resuspended in RF10 media (RPMI 1640, supplemented with 10% FCS, penicillin, streptomycin and l-glutamine; Life Technologies, Grand Island, NY, USA) and were then added to the washed wells and incubated for 5 h at 37 °C with 5% CO2. Finally, anti-mouse antibody FITC-antiCD3, PE-antiCD49b and BV421-antiCD107a (Biolegend; used at a 1:400 dilution) were added and incubated at 37 °C for 30 min in the dark. Cells were then fixed with 1% formaldehyde at 37 °C for 10 min and acquisition was performed on the LSRFortessaX-20 flow cytometer (BD Biosciences) with up to106 lymphocyte events collected. Samples were analyzed using FlowJo version 9.2 (Tree Star, Ashland, OR, USA).

The human monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) used for flow cytometry in this article included FITC-anti-CD3, FITC-anti-CD80, FITC-anti-CD163, FITC-anti-CD8α, FITC-anti-CD14, PE-anti-CD40, APC-anti-IFN-γ (all from BioLegend), BB515-anti-TLR2, and PE-anti-CD206 (all from BD Biosciences). Cells were scrapped from culture plates and incubated with human AB serum to saturate non-specific mAb binding before staining with the indicated fluorophore-labeled mAbs. For intracellular IFN-γ staining, cells were stimulated with Cell Activation Cocktail (with Brefeldin A; BioLegend) for 6 h according to the manufacturer's protocol. All data were collected using Novocyte flow cytometer (ACEA) and analyzed with FlowJo software.

CD4+ T cells were surface stained for 30 min using the following murine monoclonal antibodies: APC-anti 4-1BB (Cat. 309810), PE-anti Gal-3 (Cat. 126706), FITC-anti CD3 (BioLegend) and LIVE/DEAD (Life Technologies). Intracellularly staining were preceded by blocking with 50 µg/ml mouse IgG for 15 min before staining with an anti-TNFα antibody (Franklin Lakes, USA). Cells were washed, fixed and analyzed on a NovoCyte Quanteon™ or Amnis® ImageStream® Imagine Flow Cytometer. Spectral overlap was compensated using antibody-coated beads (eBioscience). Gating was done on live cells using fluorescence minus one (FMO). Data were analyzed using IDEAS for windows version 6.2 and/or FlowJo for Mac software version 10.1.
Imagestream gating included cells in focus, single cells and CD3 positive cells. A membrane mask was defined based on the CD3 stain using morphology mask and erode. Membrane mask included the outer three pixels. Within this mask the aggregation of 4-1BB was calculated and the surface specific MFI values determined.

The flow cytometry procedure for identification and quantification of circulating inflammatory and immune cells was based on our previous report [34 (link)]. Prior to sacrificing the animals, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were obtained from the tail vein using a 27# needle. PBMCs (1.0 × 106 cells) were triple-stained with FITC-anti-CD3 (BioLegend), PE-anti-CD8a (BD Bioscience, San Jose, CA, USA), and PE-Cy™5 anti-CD4 (BD Bioscience, San Jose, CA, USA). To identify CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs), PBMCs were triple-stained with Alexa Fluor® 488-anti-CD25 (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA), PE-anti-Foxp3 (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA), and PE-Cy™5 anti-CD4 (BD bioscience, San Jose, CA, USA) according to the manufacturer's protocol for the Foxp3 Fix/Perm buffer set.

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.
