Tumor Immunotherapy via Adoptive T Cell Transfer
For tumor vaccination, mice were injected subcutaneously (beside the tumor) with 50 μg/mouse poly(I:C) (Invivogen) together with antigenic peptides (for Pmel-1, gp10025-33; for OT-1, OVA257-264) at 10 μg/mouse (peptides were purchased from Anaspec). The control (CON) group mice were injected with PBS in same volume.
For checkpoint blockade, mice were injected with rat anti-mouse PD-L1 or isotype control (BioXcell) (200 μg per injection, i.p.) once every 4 days for a total of three injections.
Anti-IFNAR (BioXcell) (500 μg/injection, i.p.) was given twice when indicated. The first time was given together with tumor vaccine and the second injection was administrated 2 days later.

Studying T Cell Activation in Thymic Slices
For F5 and HY thymic slice assays, tissue preparation was performed as previously described (Dzhagalov et al., 2012 (link), 2013 (link)). In brief, thymic lobes were embedded in 4% GTG-NuSieve Low-melt Agarose (Lonza, Walkersville, MD) in HBSS. 500 μm slices were cut by Vibratome (1000 Plus, Leica, Buffalo Grove, IL) and placed in 0.4 μm Cell Culture Inserts (BD Biosciences) in 6-well plates containing 1 ml of RPMI media. TCR-specific (NP366-374 Strain A/NT/60/68 and Smcy HY738-746, AnaSpec) and control (NP366-374 Strain A/PR/8/35 and OVA257-264, AnaSpec) peptides were diluted to 100 ng/ml in RPMI media and 1 ml volume was added to the slices. Slices were incubated at 37°C in a plastic bag filled with 80% O2 + 15% N2 + 5% CO2 (Blood Gas, Praxair, Danbury, CT) for 30 min. The peptide was then removed and slices were further incubated for the indicated times. Thymic slices were dissociated to create single cell suspensions and cell death was assessed by Cleaved Caspase 3 staining as described above.

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.
