For flow cytometry analysis, harvested tumors were minced into small pieces with scissors and incubated in a digestion buffer at 37 °C for 70 min. The suspensions were filtrated using a cell strainer (BD Falcon, New Jersey, USA) and centrifuged at 2000 rpm for 5 min. The collected cells were re-suspended in ACK Lysis Buffer to remove red blood cells. Next, the obtained cells were resuspended in PBS and stained by Fixable Viability Dye eFluorTM 780 (Thermo Fisher Scientific Co., Ltd., Shanghai, China) to exclude dead cells. Then, cells were washed with PBS and stained with anti-CD16/CD32 antibody (BD, New Jersey, USA) for Fc blocking to prevent nonspecific binding. Subsequently the cells were incubated with Percp-Cy5.5-anti-CD45, BV510-anti-CD3, FITC-anti-CD4, BV421-anti-CD8, PE-anti-B220, APC-anti-CD11c, FITC-anti-CD11b, PE-anti-F4/80, BV650-anti-CD86 and PE-Cy7-anti-CD206 (BD, Shanghai, China) to specifically label the T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, DCs and Macrophage.

To examine DC maturation in vivo, TRAMP-C1 tumor-bearing C57BL/6 mice were treated with various strategy as described in in vivo therapy section. (n = 6) The inguinal lymph nodes were harvested 8 days post third treatment. The frequency of DC maturation in the LNs was then examined by flow cytometry after immunofluorescence staining with anti-CD11c-APC, anti-CD80-FITC, and anti-CD86-PE antibodies (BD Pharmingen™). To determine the intra-tumoral infiltration of CD8+(CD3+CD4CD8+), lymphocytes were stained with anti-CD3-Brillant violet 510, anti-CD4-PE, anti-CD8-PE-cy7. All antibodies were diluted with the ratio of 1:100. And, signal color beads (OneComp eBeads™ Compensation Beads) and unstained bead were used for compensation.

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.
