Orthotopic allografts were generated as in the efficacy studies. When tumors reached 200–400 mm3 (about 2 weeks post-cell injection), R848-Toco/HA-Toco (25 μg on R848 basis) in 50 μL volume was injected intratumorally. After 24 h, tumors were dissected and embedded in OCT medium (Fisher Scientific), followed by storage at −80 °C. Tumors were sectioned (10 μm) with a cryotome. Sections were fixed for 2 × 10 min with acetone and washed with PBS. Primary antibodies were diluted to 5 μg/mL in blocking buffer (5% goat serum in PBS) and incubated overnight at 4 °C. Antibodies used were Alexa Fluor® 488 anti-CD8a, Alexa Fluor® 594 anti-CD11b, and Alexa Fluor® 647 anti-CD11c (BioLegend). After antibody staining, sections were stained with DAPI (0.5 μg/mL in PBS; Invitrogen) for 10 minutes, mounted in SouthernBiotech™ Fluoromount-G™ Slide Mounting Medium and stored in the dark at 4 °C. Images were acquired using an Olympus IX-81 inverted epifluorescence microscope at 10x magnification. and images were captured with a Hamamatsu EM-CDD Digital Camera. The entire tumor section was imaged. Many 10x images were montaged together using SlideBook 6 to view the whole section.

Immunofluorescent Staining of Mouse Tissue

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fresh mouse tissues were soaked in 4% paraformaldehyde (PFA) for 10 hours and then sectioned at a thickness of 100 μm by a vibrating blade microtome (Leica VT1200, Germany). Then, slices were blocked in PBS containing 0.02% Triton X-100 (Sigma, Missouri, USA) and 1% bovine serum albumin (BSA) for 1 hour and then incubated with a directly-labeled antibody overnight at 4 °C. Primary antibodies used in this study were as follows: PE anti-CX3CR1 (Clone SA011F11 Cat# 149005, BioLegend), Alexa Fluor 647 anti-CD11c (Clone N418 Cat# 117312, BioLegend), and Alexa Fluor 647 anti-CD3 (Clone 17A2 Cat# 100209, BioLegend). For indirectly-labeled antibody staining, the slices were blocked as described above, then incubated with goat anti-mouse VAChT (Clone ABN100, Sigma) for 1 hour at room temperature, and further stained with the secondary antibody donkey anti-goat IgG(H + L) (Clone A21447, Biolegend) overnight at 4 °C. After washing off the unbound antibody, samples were enclosed using PBS containing 50% glycerol (w/w). Samples were imaged under an inverted confocal fluorescence microscope (FV3000, Olympus, Japan) with dry 10× NA0.4 and dry 20× NA0.8 objectives.

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.
