Immunohistochemistry:

Immunohistochemistry was performed on 4 rats injected with the retrograde tracer Cholera toxin B fragment (CtB, List Biologicals, Campbell CA, USA) to identify phrenic motor neurons in the cervical spinal cord. Each rat received an intrapleural injection of CtB for retrograde labeling of spinal phrenic motor neurons using a technique similar to that described previously…

Adoptive Transfer Experiments:

Three groups of mice were infected with ACA (110³) and after 15 days, the animals were sacrificed and cell suspensions were prepared from lymphoid tissues as above. We used two protocols to generate primary T cell cultures: (i) cells were stimulated with concanavalin-A (con-A, 1 g/ml) for two days. …Pertussis toxin (PT; 100 ng; List Biological laboratories, Campbell, CA) was administered i.p. on days 0 and 2 posttransfer, and the animals were monitored for clinical disease. At termination, animals were euthanized, and CNS tissues were collected for histology [16][18].
