EAE Induction:

Induction of EAE was performed as described earlier (33). Briefly, active EAE was induced by immunization with 200 µg MOG₃₅₅₅ peptide emulsified in complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA, Sigma-Aldrich) containing 800 µg of heat-killed Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Difco Laboratories). The emulsion was administered s.c. as four 50µl injections into the flanks of each leg. In addition, 200 ng of pertussis toxin (List Biological Laboratories) dissolved in 200 µl PBS was injected i.p. on days 0 and 2 after immunization as described earlier (34). …

Tissue clearing and nigral CTB tracing:

Lesion of the nigrostriatal pathway and VTA in Sprague-Dawley rats used for tissue clearing and light sheet microscopy or simultaneous rabies / CTB tracing received lesions was induced by unilateral injection of 6-hydroxydopamine with a volume of 3.0 L and 2.5 L at freebase concentration of 3.5 g/L to the following coordinates relative to bregma: A/P 4.4; M/L 1.2; D/V (from dura) 7.8; and A/P 4.0; M/L 0.8; D/V (from dura) 8.0, adjusted to flat head, respectively. Rats were grafted with 150,000 VM-patterned progenitors in two deposits to the striatum at a total volume of 2 L, at a concentration of 75,000 cells/L, at a rate of 1 L per minute and diffusion time of 2 min, to the following coordinates relative to bregma: A/P +0.5; M/L 2.6; D/V (from dura) 4.0/-3.5; adjusted to flat head. Animals grafted in the nigra received 75,000 cells in a total volume of 1 L to the following coordinates relative to bregma: A/P 5.2; M/L 2.3; D/V (from dura) 7.0; adjusted to flat head. For rabies / CTB tracing, animals first received two 500 nL nigral CTB (choleragenoid in low salt, List Biological Laboratories, 0.4% in PBS) injections at A/P 5.3; M/L 1.6, 2.6; D/V 7.2, 6.7 (from dura); adjusted to flat head relative to bregma, at a rate of 100 nL/min and a diffusion time of 3 minutes, followed by a total volume of 2 L G-rabies at a dilution of 5% of the stock injected at a rate of 0.5 L per minute and diffusion time of 2 min to the following coordinates relative to bregma: A/P +0.5; M/L 2.6; D/V (from dura) 4.0/-3.5; adjusted to flat head. Animals were perfused after 1 week of rabies / CTB tracing.
