Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
GPR43 and GPR109a expression levels on LP CD4 T cells were determined ex vivo and after four days of culture. LP CD4 T cells were cultured in the presence or absence of TCR activation and butyrate (0.5mM). LP CD4 T cell flow staining was determined by CD45 (PerCp-Cy5.5, eBiosciences, Clone: 2d1), CD3 (PE-Dazzle, Biolegend, Clone UCHT1), CD4 (VF450, TONBO, Clone: RPA-T4), CD8 (PE-Dazzle, TONBO, Clone: RPA-T8) and viability dye. Cells were also stained for GPR109a (PE, R&D, clone: 245106) and GPR43 (AF647, Bioss Antibodies, clone: polyclonal) expression. GPR109a expression was also measured on IEMC using the following panel: CD45 (PerCp-Cy5.5; Invitrogen, Clone: 2D1), CD3 (PE-Dazzle, Biolegend, Clone UCHT1), CD19 (PECy5, BD Biosciences, Clone HIB19, HLA-DR (APC-Cy7, BioLegend, Clone: L243) and viability dye. Isotype controls were used to determine positive staining.

The stromal vascular fraction from epididymal fat depots was isolated as described above. After lysing erythrocytes, cells were resuspended in FACS buffer (2% FCS in PBS) and counted on a CASY Counter. Here, 1,000,000 cells were used for cell surface staining, whereas 3,000,000 ones for intracellular staining. Co-cultures were separated using Cell Stripper (ThermoFisher) and resuspended in FACS buffer. Cell surface antigens were blocked with Anti-Mouse CD16/CD32 (1/300,14-0161, eBioscience) and stained for TCRb (1/400, PerCpCy5.5, 45-5961 Invitrogen), TCRgd (1/400, APC, 17-5711 Invitrogen), CD4 (1/400, PeCy7, 25-0041, Invitrogen), CD8 (1/400, APC-eFluor 780, 47-0081 Invitrogen), CD11c (1/400, PerCpCy5.5 45-0114 Invitrogen), CD19 (1/400, PeCy7 25-0193 Invitrogen), CD11b (1/400, PerCpCy5.5 45-0112 Invitrogen), CD11b (1/400, APC 17-0112 Invitrogen), CD11b (1/400, AF488, 53-0112-82, Invitrogen) F4/80 (1/400, PeCy7 25-4801), F4/80 (1/400, AF700, 56-4801-82 Invitrogen), and CD206 (1/400, FITC 123005 Biolegend). Staining of Tregs was done using Mouse Regulatory T Cell Staining Kit (88-8111 eBioscience). FACS measurement was done on a Canto II or LSR II (BD Biosciences) and FlowJo was used for analysis.

Draining lymph nodes were collected, and single-cell suspensions were prepared and divided into two FAC tubes, to be stained for two different panels (one with surface markers for T cells and one for APCs). Timings for lymph node collection are detailed in the figure legends and the Results section. Briefly, cells were first stained with the viability dye (eF506, eBioscience), blocked for non-specific FcR binding, and then incubated with a master mix of the fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies for 30 min, at 4°C. The markers on the T-cell panel were CD4 (FITC, Invitrogen), CD44 (PerCP Cy5.5, Invitrogen), CD62L (e450, Invitrogen), and ICOS (PeCy7, Biolegend). The APC panel comprised: CD19 (PerCP Cy5.5, Invitrogen), CD11c (e450, Invitrogen), MHC II (H-2b; BV786, Biolegend), CD80 (FITC, BD Biosciences), and CD86 (PeCy7, Biolegend). Data were acquired on either BD LSRFortessa or BD LSR II (BD Biosciences) and analysed using FlowJo 10 software (Tree Star).

Anti-Mouse CD8a and Anti-Mouse CD4, labelled with phycoerythrin (PE) and PerCP-Cy5.5, respectively, were purchased from eBioscience (San Diego, CA, USA) Each test contained 50 µL of peripheral blood sample, and then incubated 0.25 µL PE labeled Anti-Mouse CD8a and 0.25 µL PerCP-Cy5.5 labeled Anti-Mouse CD4. After incubating for 20 min in the dark, 2 mL lysing solution (Becton Dickinson, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA, 10%, v/v) was added to make the lysis of erythrocytes more complete and surviving cells were washed twice with PBS, with centrifugation between each step for 5 min at 500 g. FACScan flow cytometer was used for FCM analysis (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA, USA). First, an electronic gate was set on lymphocytes and then gated CD4+ T cells in Y axis and CD8+ cells as figure. Dead cells were excluded according to the forward scatter and side scatter.

For analysis of surface markers, cells were stained in PBS containing 2% (wt/vol) BSA. Intracellular staining of the transcription factors Foxp3 was performed using the Foxp3 Fix/Perm Buffer Set (Biolegend). For detection of intracellular cytokines, cells were first stimulated for 4 h with 50ng/ml PMA and 1 µg/ml ionomycin in the presence of Brefeldin A (All obtained from Sigma), followed by staining for surface markers. Cells were then fixed and permeabilized using the Foxp3 Fix/Perm Buffer Set (Biolegend) and stained for intracellular cytokines. The following antibodies were used at a dilution of 1/200–1/600: PerCP-Cy5.5, PE-, FITC- or APC-labeled anti-IL-17 (TC11-18H10.1), PE- or APC-labeled anti-IL-10 (JES5-16E3), PE-labeled anti-Foxp3 (FJK-16s, eBioscience), PE-, FITC- or APC-labeled anti-CCR6 (29-2L17), PE-, FITC- or APC-labeled anti-CD4 (RM4-5), PE-Cy7-labeled anti-CD3 (145-2C11), APC- or PE-Cy7-labeled anti-IFN (XMG1.2), FITC-, PerCP-Cy5.5 or Pacific Blue-labeled anti-CD45 (30-F11), PE-anti-CCR4 (2G12), PE- or FITC-labeled anti-CCR9 (CW-1.2).

To determine the number of infiltrated neutrophils in the peritoneal lavage, the cells were first fixed with Rotihistofix (Roth) at 4 °C for 30 min and washed several times in PBS + 3% FBS. Cells were labeled with Gr-1-FITC (1.5 μL RB6–8C5, Thermo Fisher Scientific, 11–5931–82) and F4/80 PerCP-Cy5.5 (1.5 μL BM8, Thermo Fisher Scientific, 45–4801–82) for at least 30 min on ice, washed several times, and followed with the flow cytometer CyFlow Space (Partec) using FloMax software (v. 2.70, Quantum Analysis group), where the FL1 and FL3 channels were used to discriminate between different cell populations (neutrophils and macrophages). The number of cells/ml was determined and the total number of Gr-1+, F4/80 cells was calculated taking into account the sample volume and the percentage of cells in the defined region. Example plots can be found in Supplementary Fig. 25.

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.
