Peripheral CD4, CD8, and DP T cells were stimulated with PMA (50 ng/mL) and ionomycin (1.5 μM) and treated with monensin (6.7 μg/mL) for 6 hours at 37°C in a CO2 incubator. After culture, cells were washed with complete medium (RPMI/10% FBS) and resuspended in staining buffer (PBS, 0.5% BSA, and 0.5 mM EDTA). The cells were then fixed, permeabilized, and stained with anti-granzyme B (BioLegend, San Diego, CA, USA) and anti-perforin (Mabtech, Nacka Strand, Sweden) antibodies.

Bone marrow derived dendritic cells (BMDC) were generated from RIG-I+/+ and RIG-I-/- mice and T cell re-stimulation experiments were performed as previously described[31 (link)], [32 (link)]. Briefly, BMDC were first infected with PR8 at an MOI of 0.5 for 5h, washed with PBS 3 times to remove free virus, and resuspended in Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's Media complete media with FBS (IMDM, Invitrogen). For some experiments, infected BMDC were treated with IFN-I (200U/ml) before T cells were added. T cells from naïve or IAV infected RIG-I+/+ and RIG-I-/- mice (day 7 post infection) were enriched using Pan T cells isolation kit II (Miltenyi Biotec) and co-cultured with PR8 infected BMDC at a ratio of 10:1 for 2–3 hours followed by the addition of Brefeldin A (5μg/ml; eBiosciences). DC-T cell co-cultures were further incubated for an additional 8-10hrs. The cells were first surface stained for cell surface markers, followed by intracellular staining for cytokines. For intracellular staining, cells were incubated in permeabilization and fixation buffer (BD Pharmingen) for 45 minutes followed by 2 washes in 1xPBS, 1%FBS, 0.5% Saponin (Sigma, St Louis, MO) and intracellular staining with anti-IFNγ (2μg/ml, XMG1.2) (Biolegend), anti- Granzyme B (2μg/ml, GB11) (Biolegend), anti-TNFα (2μg/ml, MP6-XT22) (eBiosciences) for 30 minutes.

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.
