Mannan-Induced Murine Arthritis Model

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Arthritis was induced by either a single injection of 20 mg mannan (Sigma-Aldrich) intraperitoneally (Hashimoto et al., 2010 (link)), or adoptive transfer of CD4+ T cells intravenously (i.v.) (Hirota et al., 2007a (link)). CD4+ T cells were sorted from the spleen and peripheral LNs of SKG mice using MACS CD4 microbeads and LS column (Miltenyi Biotec) according to the manufacturer’s instruction. For depletion of ILCs, purified anti-Thy1.1 (19E12; Bio X cell), anti-Thy1.2 (30H12; Bio X Cell) or isotype control Rat IgG2b (LTF-2; Bio X Cell) antibody was i.v. injected. Joint swelling was scored as follows: 0, no joint swelling; 0.1, swelling of one finger joint; 0.5, mild swelling of wrist or ankle; 1.0, severe swelling of wrist or ankle. Scores for all fingers of forepaws and hindpaws, wrists and ankles were totaled for each mouse.

The following antibodies were purchased from BD Biosciences (San Jose, CA): anti-CD80 (16-10A1), anti-CD86 (GL1), anti-CD45 (30-F11), anti-CD11b (M1/70), anti-Gr-1 (RB6-8C5) and anti-CD25 (PC61). The following antibodies were purchased from eBioscience (San Diego, CA): anti-CD3 (145-2C11), anti-CD4 (GK1.5), anti-CD8 (53–6.7), anti-IFN-γ (XMG1.2) and anti-Foxp3 (NRRF-30).

Cell Depletion and IFNγ Neutralization in Tumor Therapy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
100–300 μg/dose of anti-CD4 (GK1.5), anti-CD8 (2.43), anti-NK1.1 (PK136), anti-Gr1 (RB6-8C5) mAbs or Rat IgG2b (LTF-2) from BioXCell, were injected one day before therapy, concurrently with the first intratumoral injection and at days 3, 7, and 10 after the beginning of therapy. Cell depletion was validated in blood samples by flow cytometry analysis, showing a specific reduction of more than 95% of each respective cell subset. Gr1 depletion was confirmed in the tumor microenvironment on day 7 (the day of the first BO-112 injection). For IFNγ neutralization, mice were treated with 250 μg of anti-IFNγ (XMG1.2) or rat IgG the day prior to each BO-112 treatment. Then, mice were injected weekly with for depletion maintenance (100 μg/dose).

Murine Tumor Cell Injection and Immunotherapy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
B16F10 and TC-1 mouse tumor cell lines were purchased from ATCC and passaged in DMEM medium containing 10% FBS, 1% penicillin–streptomycin (all from Gibco) in TC-treated Cell Culture Dishes (SPL). At 70%–80% confluency, cancer cells were washed once with PBS (GenDepot) and detached using TrypLE Express (Gibco). B16F10 cells in PBS were either intravenously (1.0–4.0×105 cells), intrasplenically (5.0×105 cells), or subcutaneously (3.0×105 cells) injected into mice. TC-1 cells were intravenously injected into mice (5.0×105 cells). In indicated experiments, mice were intraperitoneally treated with either rat IgG2b (LTF-2; BioXCell) or anti-CD4 depleting antibody (GK1.5; BioXCell) at 100–200 µg/head doses every 4 to 5 days. In addition, anti-mouse CD127 (A7R34; BioXCell), anti-mouse Ly6G (1A8; BioXCell), or anti-mouse PD-L1 (10F.9G2; BioXCell) was intraperitoneally treated at 100 µg/head every 4 days. For RORγt inhibition, ursolic acid (U6753; Sigma Aldrich) dissolved in DMSO was intraperitoneally treated at 150 mg/kg every other day. For Tc17 adoptive transfer experiment, Tc17 cells generated in vitro from naïve CD8+ T cells isolated from CD45.1+ Pmel mice (3.0×106 cells) were adoptively transferred into C57BL/6 mice 1 day before B16F10 tumor intravenous injection. Mice were sacrificed on days 14–19 after tumor cell injection.

Blocking mAbs to CD70 (FR70) (Oshima et al., 1998) , PD-1 (RMP1-14), BTLA (6A6), LAG3 (C97W) or agonistic mAb to CD27 (RM27-3E5) (Sakanishi and Yagita, 2010) were injected i.p. at 100 mg per mouse in 100 mL HBSS on each day of vaccination and in case of FR70 mAb also at day 9. Depleting CD8 (2.43) mAb was injected i.p. at 200 mg per mouse in 100 mL HBSS 2 days before and on each day of vaccination. In the LCMV-infection experiment, mice were injected i.v. with depleting CD4 mAb (GK1.5) at 200 mg per mouse 2 days before and 2 and 4 days after the infection. Control mice were injected with equal amounts of rat IgG2b (LTF-2) or IgG2a (2A3) isotype controls (Bio X Cell). Small-molecule inhibitor 18a (Karlstro ¨m et al., 2013) was injected i.p. at 50 mg per mouse and AMD3100 (Hatse et al., 2002) at 100 mg per mouse at days 1, 4 and 7 after the last vaccination. In adoptive transfer experiments, 18a (50 mg), AMD3100 (100 mg) and GM6001 (200 mg) were injected i.p. on the day of transfer and 24 h later. The number of repeat experiments is indicated at the end of corresponding Figure Legend.

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.
