Antigen uptake by BMDCs was measured using the standard method. OVA-Alexa488 (Invitrogen) was used as the model antigen. BMDCs (2×105) were incubated for various time points at 37 °C with OVA-Alexa488 (50 µg/mL) or OVA-Alexa488-MNPs (OVA-Alexa488 50 µg/mL/MNPs 25, and 50 µg/mL) particles. Uptake was terminated by washing the cells with ice-cold fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) buffer (phosphate-buffered saline containing 1% FBS and 0.1% NaN3). Cells were stained with PE-conjugated anti-CD11c (BD Biosciences). Alexa488 fluorescence of CD11cpositive cells was measured using an FACS CantoII (BD Biosciences). The morphology of the BMDCs was examined using a Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope (CLSM) (PE: excitation 496, emission; 578 FITC: excitation 488, emission 519).

For easier detection of cell uptake by intestinal DCs, naïve mice were orally administered with 1mg of FITC-IK and FITC-IK NPs, respectively. After 6 h, small intestine was removed and flow cytometry analysis of the intestinal lamina propria mononuclear cells (LPMCs) was performed. The cell suspensions were stained with PE-conjugated anti-CD11c and APC-conjugated anti-CD103 (BD Biosciences Pharmingen). Isotype IgG was used as control antibodies. CD11c+CD103+ cells were gated for intestinal DCs and then FITC intensity was directly analyzed using a FACS Calibur Flow cytometer (BD Biosciences). The data were analyzed using Flowjo software (7.6.1).
For fluorescence analysis of in vivo cell uptake, intestinal cryosections of mice receiving free FITC-IK and FITC-IK NPs were prepared. The sections were incubated with DAPI in order to visualize nuclei. Images of positive staining were taken using a fluorescence microscope (Olympus, Tokyo, Japan).

CD4+T cells were isolated by magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS) using CD4 antibodies (Miltenyi Biotec, Germany) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Isolated T cells were cocultured with macrophages treated by 100 ng/ml rHMGB1 (H4652, Sigma Aldrich, USA), BSA or without, respectively for 4 days36 (link). Th17 cell polarization was assessed according previously describe (50 ng/ml PMA and 1 μg/ml ionomycin)37 (link) (both from Sigma Aldrich, USA). GolgiPlug (BD Pharmingen, USA) was added during the last 5 h. Cells were fixed and permeabilized and stained with FITC-conjugated anti-IL-17 (BD Pharmingen, USA).
Macrophages were surface-stained with PE-conjugated anti-CD11c and FITC-conjugated anti-F4/80 antibody. After washing with phosphate buffered saline (PBS), stained cells were resuspended and analyzed.
All the samples were analyzed by FACS Calibur (BD Biosciences, USA).

6-wk-old BALB/cJRj mice (Charles River) were i.p. infected with 105 parasites and sacrificed on days 4 and 7 p.i. Immediately after being killed, mice were peritoneally lavaged with PBS, and recovered lavage fluid was centrifuged at 500 g for 8 min. Peritoneal cells were washed in stain buffer (PBS containing 2% FBS and 0.1 mM EDTA), and cells were then pretreated at 4°C for 1 h with mAb 2.4G2 to block nonspecific binding to Fcγ receptors. Thereafter, cells were incubated for 1 h with fluorescently conjugated antibodies for cell surface markers from BD: PE-conjugated anti-CD11b, PE-conjugated anti-Gr1, PE-conjugated anti-CD11c, and APC-conjugated anti–Ly-6G. Isotype controls consisted of PE-conjugated rat IgG2b, PE-conjugated hamster IgG1, and APC-conjugated rat IgG2a, provided by BD. Analysis of stained cells was performed with a FACSCalibur flow cytometer (BD). For all samples, 100,000 cells were analyzed for plot generation.

Two mice were treated with bilateral footpad injections of 50 μg TMV-488 (25 μg into each footpad). Popliteal and inguinal lymph nodes (LNs, n=3–4) and spleens (n=2) were dissected 24, 48 and 96 hours after injection. LNs and spleens were mechanically disaggregated to yield single cell suspensions. Cells were then analyzed for the presence of TMV-488 using flow cytometry. Additionally, these cells were stained using PE-conjugated anti-CD11c (BD Pharmingen), CD19 (BD Pharmingen), or Gr-1 (BD Pharmingen) in three separate reactions and analyzed via flow cytometry.

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.
