The method of mouse euthanasia was described previously. Single cells from the spleen were suspended in RPMI 1640 culture medium (HyClone, Logan, UT, USA) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (Gibco, Gaithersburg, MD, USA) and Cell Stimulation Cocktail (eBioscience, San Diego, CA, USA) and then cultured in 6-well plates for 5 hours in a 37°C/5% CO2 incubator.
Lymphocytes were separated from the spleen by passing through a 70 μm nylon mesh. Erythrocytes were lysed with ammonium chloride buffer, after which the remaining cells were washed and counted using a hemocytometer. One million cells were suspended in staining buffer with the following fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies: CD4-FITC (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), CD25-APC (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), IL-4-PECy7 (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), IFN-γ-PE (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA), and Foxp3-PE (mAb; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA).

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.
