Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
3xTg-AD and control B6129SF2/J were obtained from MMRRC JAX or the Jackson Laboratory, and bred in the animal facility of Albany Medical College. 7–8 months old female mice were used in this study. For anti-NK1.1 treatment, mice were treated with 25μg anti-NK1.1 (clone PK136, Bio X Cell) antibodies or isotype control (clone C1.18.4, Bio X Cell) every 4 days for 4 weeks. For anti-CD1d treatment, mice were treated with 500μg anti-CD1d (clone 19G11, Bio X Cell) antibodies or isotype control every other day for 4 weeks. Water Maze tests were performed on the day after the last treatment. Specifically, for anti-Nk1.1 treatment, mice were treated with anti-NK1.1 antibodies or isotype controls on day 1, 5, 9, 13, 17, 21, 25, 29; and Water Maze test was performed on day 30. For anti-CD1d treatment, mice were treated with anti-CD1d antibodies or isotype control on day 1, 3, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29; and Water Maze test was performed on day 30. All animal experiments were performed according to protocols approved by the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee at Albany Medical College.

Immune Cell Depletion in Tumor Models

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mice were administered depleting antibodies or appropriate isotype control antibodies intraperitoneally (IP) for each experiment as follows: CD8 Depletion: 250 μg of anti-CD8a clone 2.43 (BioXCell, Lebanon, NH), starting day 6 and weekly thereafter. CD4 Depletion: 250 μg of anti-CD4 clone GK1.5 (BioXCell), starting day 6 then weekly thereafter. BALB/c NK cell depletion: 20 μL of anti-asialo GM1 rabbit serum (Wako Chemicals, Richmond, VA) or control rabbit serum, starting day 6, repeated every 4 days for a total of 4 injections. BL/6 NK cell depletion: 200 μg of anti-NK1.1 clone PK-136 (BioXCell) starting day 6, repeated every 4 days for a total of 4 injections. IFN-γ depletion: 100 μg of anti-IFN- γ clone R4–6A2 (BioXCell), on days 7, 9, 15 and 21. After repeated antibody injections, some mice developed a fatal anaphylactic reaction, which correlated with tumor burden. These mice were censored from survival curves since they did not meet the experimental endpoint, and antibody treatments were discontinued for the remaining mice. When more than half of the mice in a treatment group died or were sacrificed, the group was censored from the tumor regression curves to avoid skewing the mean.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
20,000U of Type I IFNα (R&D systems) was administered intraperitoneally to SRα-tTA/tet-O-MYC mice bearing overt lymphoma for 3 days. On day 3, spleens from treated mice were collected, and subjected to flow cytometry for NK and T cell analysis. PBS-treated mice were used as controls. Absolute cell counts were obtained as described in section ‘Calculation of absolute immune cell counts’. For long-term administration of Type I IFNα, the mice were treated every third day with 20,000 U IFNα or PBS intraperitoneally. 100 µg anti-NK1.1 (clone PK136, BioXCell) or IgG2a control (Clone C1.18.4, BioXCell) were administered intraperitoneally every sixth day to deplete NK cells. 2.5 mg anti-IFNAR1 (clone MAR1-6A3, Leinco) or IgG1 control (clone HKSP, Leinco) were administered intraperitoneally to block IFNAR1 in SRα-tTA/tet-O-MYC mice bearing overt lymphoma at the same time as the mice were subjected to MYC inactivation with doxycycline treatment. After 4 days, spleen was collected and subjected to flow cytometry for NK and T cell analysis.

To deplete NK cells, CD4+ T cells and CD8+ T cells, tumour-bearing mice were intraperitoneally injected with anti-NK1.1 (clone PK136, BioXCell), anti-CD4 (clone GK1.5, BioXCell), anti-CD8-α (clone 2.43, BioXCell) or isotype control (RatIgG1,BioXcell) antibodies at an initial dose of 400 mg 1 d before treatment, followed by 200 mg every 3 d. Depletion of CD8+ T cells, CD4+ T cells and NK cells was confirmed using flow cytometry analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

The anti-NK1.1 depletion experiment was performed in Kras/p53 driven lung cancer model, while IFNγ and CCRL2 blocking in the LG cell line lung metastasis model. Mice were treated at day -1 intraperitoneally with 100 μg of anti-NK1.1 (clone PK136) or isotype control (clone C1.18.4) and anti-CCRL2, generated in the lab (Otero et al., 2010 (link)), or isotype control (clone MPC-11); and 200 μg of anti-IFNγ (clone XMG1.2) or isotype control (IgG1k HRPN) (all from BioXCell). Mice were then treated with 100 μg once (anti-NK1.1) or three times (anti-CCRL2; anti-IFNγ) a week for the entire duration of the experiment.

On day 0, CB6F1 and WT B6 mice were adoptively transferred intravenously with 1 × 106 CD45.1+ TEa cells, which were isolated from spleens of CD45.1+ TEa mice using the Dynabeads untouched mouse CD4 cells kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). WT B6 mice were also transplanted with Balb/c tail skins on day 0, whereas CB6F1 mice were intraperitoneally injected with 500 μg anti-NK1.1 (clone PK136, Bio X Cell) on days −3 and 15 to deplete NK cells. The following experiments were then performed: (1) on different days after TEa cell transfer, TEa cell states in peripheral blood and spleens were determined by flow cytometric analysis; (2) on day 6 after TEa-cell transfer, TCR(Vα2+ Vβ6+)CD45.1+CD4+ TEa cells were sorted from splenocytes, followed by RNA-seq analysis as described later; and (3) on day 30 after TEa cell transfer, TCR(Vα2+ Vβ6+)CD45.1+CD4+ TEa cells were sorted from splenocytes and further adoptively transferred into B6.Rag1−/− mice. One day later, B6.Rag1−/− mice were transplanted with Balb/c tail skins to determine the antigraft function of TEa cells.

CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and NK cells were depleted by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of 200 μg of anti-CD4 (clone GK1.5), anti-CD8 (clone YTS 169.4), and anti-NK1.1 (clone PK136) antibodies respectively in antibody dilution buffer pH 7.0 (Bio X Cell). Cellular depletion was confirmed by flow cytometry analysis of CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells and NK cells in the blood samples of mice within 24 hours after the first depletion antibody injection. The next day, mice were challenged with 5 × 105 LL/2-tdTomato/Luc cells and another four doses of cellular depletion antibodies were given every four to five days post tumor challenge to deplete newly formed lymphocytes.

Induction and Assessment of Active and Passive EAE

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Active EAE was induced by immunization with the myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) peptide amino acids 35–55 (MEVGWYRSPFSRVVHLYRNGK). 100 μg MOG35-55 peptide was emulsified in complete Freund’s adjuvant supplemented with M. tuberculosis extract H37Ra (Difco), and injected subcutaneously. Mice received 150 ng pertussis toxin (List Biological Laboratories) intraperitoneally on days 0 and 2. Passive transfer EAE was induced by injecting 2D2 TH17-polarized cells (as described above) intravenously into recipient mice at 5–7.5 × 106 cells/mouse. For NK depletion experiments, 0.5 mg/dose of purified anti-NK1.1 (clone PK136, BioXCell) was injected intravenously into mice on days −5/−3/−1 prior to 2D2 adoptive transfer, and additionally every 3 days from day 1 post-2D2 transfer. Classical EAE symptoms were scored daily according to standard criteria: 0, asymptomatic; 1, flaccid tail; 2, hind limb weakness and impaired righting ability; 3, hind limb paralysis; 4, front and hind limb paralysis; 5, moribund or death.

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.
