Retrograde and Fos double labeling of pre-oculomotor neurons:

In the last four rats, cholera toxin B (CTB) was delivered into the III to retrogradely label contralateral INC/DN pre-oculomotor neurons. …The negative control rats suffered stereotaxic frame mounting, craniotomy and saline injection alone without down-stretching the jaw^[18]. Then, coronal frozen sections (30 mm in thickness) were cut through the midbrain and pons. The sections were incubated with rabbit anti-Fos antibody (Santa Cruz Biotech) and goat anti-CTB serum (1:500, List Biological Laboratories, USA) overnight.

EAE induction, prevention, and treatment:

C57BL/6 mice (812 weeks old) were immunized subcutaneously with 6 mg/mL synthetic peptide of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG₃₅₅₅) peptide (MEVGWYRSPFSRVVHLYRNGK,… In addition, the animals received 250 ng pertussis toxin (List Biological Laboratories) intraperitoneally (I.P.) on days of immunization and 48 h later. …

PBMC isolation and culture:

PBMC (peripheral blood mononuclear cells) were isolated from collected blood or leukapheresis by density gradient centrifugation, according to the manufacturers instructions. Cells were cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen suspended in FBS containing 10% (vol/vol) DMSO. For PBMCs in vitro expansion, 2 x 10⁶ cells/ml were cultured in the presence of 5 g/ml Tetanus Toxoid (TT) (List Biological Laboratories Inc., Campbell, CA)…

Materials:

Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin B (SEB, List Biological laboratories, INC, CA) were utilized to induce nasal polyp in sino-nasal cavity.

Animal Nasal Polyp Model:

…We prepared 5 different treatment formulations: PBS vehicle without RSV, a bolus RSV solution, and 3 distinct suspensions of PLGA/PEG NM in PBS. The formulations were intranasally administered 1 day after the OVA and SEB administration, which were scheduled 3 times per week. At each administration, 20l of the same formulation was applied to both nostrils; hence, a total of 40l was administered to each mouse. …

…On day 1, each mouse was injected subcutaneously with 10 µl of MOG emulsion and injected intraperitoneally with 200 ng of pertussis toxin (List Biological Laboratories, Campbell, CA) diluted in sterile PBS. …

Mice and immunizations:

TNP‐Ficoll (Biosearch Technologies; 10 μg/mouse in PBS) and NP‐CGG (Biosearch Technologies; 10 μg/mouse in PBS:Alum (Thermo Scientific) 3:1) immunizations were done by intra‐peritoneal (i.p.) injection. For cholera toxin (Ctx; List Biological Laboratories, Inc.) immunization, mice were starved for 2 h and HBSS + 7.5% sodium bicarbonate solution (4:1 ratio) was administered by intra‐gastric (i.g.) gavage, followed 30 min later by i.g. gavage of 2.5 μg active Ctx in PBS. Mice were culled at d14 post‐immunization for analysis. …
