Single cell suspensions were derived from hepatic homogenate and stained with directly conjugated monoclonal antibodies or isotype controls. Staining for cytokine expression was completed after 4 hours of stimulation with 50 ng/mL Phorbol 12-Myristate 13-acetate (PMA; Promega), 1 μg/mL Ionomycin (Calbiochem) and 10μg/mL Brefeldin A (Gold Bio). Data collection and analysis were done as previously described11 (link),63 (link). Briefly, cells were stained with Live/Dead stain (Zombie UV Dye: Biolegend) and with directly-conjugated monoclonal antibodies to CD45-AF700 (104), CD11b-PE (M1/70), F4/80-APCef780 (BM8), Ly6C-Percp (HK1.4), Gr1-FITC (RB6-8C5), NK1.1-PECy7 (PK136), TCRβ-PE (H57-597), CD4-APCef780 (GK1.5), CD8-ef450 (53-6.7), TNF-BV650 (MP6-XT22), IL-17A-Percp (17B7) and IL-17F-PE (18F10) [all antibodies from e-Bioscience]. Flow cytometry data were then collected using a LSR Fortessa (BD) flow cytometer and analyzed using FlowJo X software (vX0.7).
