Molecular function

Methods

In vitro culture of Eos and MDSCs

  • On day 12, the cells were collected for May-Grünwald-Giemsa staining and flow cytometry analysis6 cells per ml in 10% FBS/RPMI medium, supplemented with 40 ng ml−1 GM-CSF.
  • On day 4, the cells were collected for FACS analysis of CD11b+ CD11c− Ly-6C+ Ly-6Glow MDSCs

Lentiviral transduction of bone marrow cells

  • Freshly isolated bone marrow (BM) cells were plated in Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's Medium (IMDM) (31980, , ) containing 5% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 1% penicillin/streptomycin, 200 mM glutamine, 1% non-essential amino acids, 1% sodium pyruvate, 50 μM 2-mercaptoethanol, stem cell factor (SCF, 10 ng/ml, , ), Flt3-L (10 ng/ml), IL-11 (10 ng/ml), thrombopoietin (TPO, 10 ng/ml), IL-6 (10 ng/ml), and IL-3 (10 ng/ml).
  • Bone marrow cells were spin-infected with 8 μg/ml polyprene and lentivirus (MOI of 0.1–0.5), at 2,500 rpm for 90 min.
  • BM cells were then incubated for 3 hours at 37°C, counted and injected into NOD.SCID mice.

Eosinophil counting and culture

  • Peripheral blood eosinophils were counted by’s staining [6/ml in IMDM containing 10% FBS , 100 IU/ml penicillin and 10 μg/ml streptomycin , 2 mM glutamine , and 50 μM 2-Mercaptoethanol supplemented with 100 ng/ml stem cell factor (SCF) and 100 ng/ml FLT3 ligand from days 0 to 4.
  • On day 4, the medium was replaced with fresh medium containing 10 ng/ml recombinant mouse IL-5 (&systems).
  • From this point forward, half of the medium was replaced every other day with fresh medium containing IL-5, and the cell density was maintained around 1×106/ml.
  • On day 14, the cells were harvested for in vitro experiments after flow cytometric identification by CC3-FITC and Siglec-F-PE (B ) staining as well as morphological examination by cytospun slide staining with a modified Giemsa preparation (iff ).
  • As expected, more than 90% of harvested cells are eosinophils (data not shown).

Culture-derived Generation of Eosinophils from Bone Marrow Precursors

  • Ex vivo generation by culture of mouse bone marrow-derived eosinophils was performed essentially as previously described by Dyer et al −/− and mev mice by flushing the bone marrow cavity with RPM 1640 medium .

  • On day 4, the cells were moved to new flasks and the medium containing SCF and FLT3-L was replaced with medium containing 10 ng/ml recombinant mouse IL-5 .
  • Every other day, from this point forward until cells were used, one-half of the…

Lentiviral vectors, LSK-cell transduction, and differentiation and expansion of transduced macrophages

  • Transduction, expansion, and differentiation of LSK cells into gene-corrected macrophages was done by adjusting the cytokine ‘cocktail’ mixture to optimize the culture conditions for each of four sequential stages, which included: 1) LSK transduction –murine SCF 50ng/ml, mIL-3 10 ng/ml, hFlt3-L 50 ng/ml and GM-CSF 10 ng/ml), culture time – two 12 hour periods; 2) progenitor expansion - mSCF 50 ng/ml, hFlt3-L 50 ng/ml and GM-CSF 10 ng/ml, culture time - 4 days; 3) macrophage lineage commitment - mSCF 1 ng/ml, hFlt3-L 1 ng/ml, GM-CSF 10 ng/ml, M-CSF 5 ng/ml, culture time - 3 days; and 4) macrophage differentiation - GM-CSF 10 ng/ml and M-CSF 5 ng/ml, culture - 4 days.
  • StemSpan containing 2% FBS, 1% penicillin/streptomycin, 10 mM dNTP, and low density lipoprotein was used as the culture medium for the LSK transduction and DMEM with 10% FBS, 50 U/ml penicillin and…

Normal early thymocyte development in CBAP-deficient mice.

  • DN thymocytes were isolated from 4-week-old littermates and co-cultured with OP9-DL4 cells in the presence of 1 ng/ml FLT3-ligand and 1 ng/ml IL-7.
