EasySep™ Mouse T Cell Isolation Kit
Immunomagnetic negative isolation of untouched mouse T cells
New format, same high quality! You may notice that your kit contents and packaging look slightly different from previous orders. We are currently updating the format of select EasySep™ Mouse kits to include a Mouse FcR blocker instead of Normal Rat Serum. With this change, all components will now be shipped in a single package, while providing the same cell isolation performance as before.

S100a9 Protects Against the Effects of Repeated Social Defeat Stress.
Biological psychiatry global open science 2023 oct
Abstract
BACKGROUND Posttraumatic stress disorder, a consequence of psychological trauma, is associated with increased inflammation and an elevated risk of developing comorbid inflammatory diseases. However, the mechanistic link between this mental health disorder and inflammation remains elusive. We previously found that S100a8 and S100a9 messenger RNA, genes that encode the protein calprotectin, were significantly upregulated in T lymphocytes and positively correlated with inflammatory gene expression and the mitochondrial redox environment in these cells. Therefore, we hypothesized that genetic deletion of calprotectin would attenuate the inflammatory and redox phenotype displayed after psychological trauma. METHODS We used a preclinical mouse model of posttraumatic stress disorder known as repeated social defeat stress (RSDS) combined with pharmacological and genetic manipulation of S100a9 (which functionally eliminates calprotectin). A total of 186 animals (93 control, 93 RSDS) were used in these studies. RESULTS Unexpectedly, we observed worsening of behavioral pathology, inflammation, and the mitochondrial redox environment in mice after RSDS compared with wild-type animals. Furthermore, loss of calprotectin significantly enhanced the metabolic demand on T lymphocytes, suggesting that this protein may play an undescribed role in mitochondrial regulation. This was further supported by single-cell RNA sequencing analysis demonstrating that RSDS and loss of S100a9 primarily altered genes associated with mitochondrial function and oxidative phosphorylation. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that the loss of calprotectin potentiates the RSDS-induced phenotype, which suggests that its observed upregulation after psychological trauma may provide previously unexplored protective functions.
Immune correlates of protection following Rift Valley fever virus vaccination.
NPJ vaccines 2022 oct
Abstract
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is a hemorrhagic fever virus with the potential for significant economic and public health impact. Vaccination with an attenuated strain, DelNSsRVFV, provides protection from an otherwise lethal RVFV challenge, but mechanistic determinants of protection are undefined. In this study, a murine model was used to assess the contributions of humoral and cellular immunity to DelNSsRVFV-mediated protection. Vaccinated mice depleted of T cells were protected against subsequent challenge, and passive transfer of immune serum from vaccinated animals to na{\{i}}ve animals was also protective demonstrating that T cells were dispensable in the presence of humoral immunity and that humoral immunity alone was sufficient. Animals depleted of B cells and then vaccinated were protected against challenge. Total splenocytes but not T cells alone B cells alone or B??+??T cells harvested from vaccinated animals and then transferred to na{\"{i}}ve animals were sufficient to confer protection suggesting that multiple cellular interactions were required for effective cellular immunity. Together these data indicate that humoral immunity is sufficient to confer vaccine-mediated protection and suggests that cellular immunity plays a role in protection that requires the interaction of various cellular components."
METTL3 Inhibits Antitumor Immunity by Targeting m6A-BHLHE41-CXCL1/CXCR2 Axis to Promote Colorectal Cancer.
Gastroenterology 2022 oct
Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS N6-Methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent RNA modification and recognized as an important epitranscriptomic mechanism in colorectal cancer (CRC). We aimed to exploit whether and how tumor-intrinsic m6A modification driven by methyltransferase like 3 (METTL3) can dictate the immune landscape of CRC. METHODS Mettl3 knockout mice, CD34+ humanized mice, and different syngeneic mice models were used. Immune cell composition and cytokine level were analyzed by flow cytometry and Cytokine 23-Plex immunoassay, respectively. M6A sequencing and RNA sequencing were performed to identify downstream targets and pathways of METTL3. Human CRC specimens (n = 176) were used to evaluate correlation between METTL3 expression and myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) infiltration. RESULTS We demonstrated that silencing of METTL3 in CRC cells reduced MDSC accumulation to sustain activation and proliferation of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, and eventually suppressed CRC in ApcMin/+Mettl3+/- mice, CD34+ humanized mice, and syngeneic mice models. Mechanistically, METTL3 activated the m6A-BHLHE41-CXCL1 axis by analysis of m6A sequencing, RNA sequencing, and cytokine arrays. METTL3 promoted BHLHE41 expression in an m6A-dependent manner, which subsequently induced CXCL1 transcription to enhance MDSC migration in vitro. However, the effect was negligible on BHLHE41 depletion, CXCL1 protein or CXCR2 inhibitor SB265610 administration, inferring that METTL3 promotes MDSC migration via BHLHE41-CXCL1/CXCR2. Consistently, depletion of MDSCs by anti-Gr1 antibody or SB265610 blocked the tumor-promoting effect of METTL3 in vivo. Importantly, targeting METTL3 by METTL3-single guide RNA or specific inhibitor potentiated the effect of anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD1) treatment. CONCLUSIONS Our study identifies METTL3 as a potential therapeutic target for CRC immunotherapy whose inhibition reverses immune suppression through the m6A-BHLHE41-CXCL1 axis. METTL3 inhibition plus anti-PD1 treatment shows promising antitumor efficacy against CRC.
