Stereotaxic surgery:

Ten 49118 days old male C57BL/6 J wild-type mice were anesthetized with isoflurane followed by an intraperitoneal injection of an anesthetic mixture. …In these cases, following FG injections, we injected the retrograde tracer 0.5 % Cholera toxin B subunit (CTB, List Biologicals, Campbell, CA, USA) into the HIPP of the left hemisphere at three coordinates: 2.5, 2.8, 3.2 mm posterior from bregma, 1.6, 1.6, 1.7 mm lateral from midline and 2.1, 2.1, 2.2 mm below the zero level, respectively. In the other four mice, FG was injected bilaterally into the PFC at the coordinates given above, and CTB was injected into the MS at the coordinates 1.0 mm anterior from bregma, in the midline and 4.1 mm below the zero level. We injected 1418 nl of FG and 1823 nl of CTB into every single injection spot using the Nanoject-R pump. …

Induction, treatment and clinical evaluation of EAE:

6-8 weeks old female mice with C57BL/6 background purchased from The Janvier Laboratory were used for the experiments. Animals were 6 weeks old and weighed between 19 and 23 µg. Each mouse was immunized subcutaneously (s.c.) at day 0 with 200 µg MOG35-55 peptide and 800 µg MTB H37RA dissolved in 100 µl PBS and 100 µl CFA. Emulsion was sonificated with a Bandelin Sonopuls at 50 % interval and 50 % power for 3 minutes. Additionally, 400 ng of PTX was applied intraperitoneally (i.p.) at day 0 and day 2. Omnifix-F syringes were used for all injections. …
