… The following primary antibodies are recommended: goat antibody against CTB (1:1,000, No. 703; List Biological Laboratories, Campbell, CA, USA) …

• Product #703 – Anti-Cholera Toxin B Subunit (Goat)

Cell Culture, Proteins, Antibodies and Chemicals:

…Cholera toxin was obtained from List Biological Laboratory.

Immunofluorescence Staining and Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy:

…Cells without CARDS toxin were processed similarly to serve as negative controls. In parallel, cells treated with cholera toxin (0.5 µg) or Tf (10 µg), plus their respective antibodies at 1:500 dilution, served as positive controls for caveolin-mediated and clathrin-mediated endocytosis.

• Product #100B – Cholera Toxin (AZIDE-FREE) from Vibrio cholerae

Immunization EAE:

Mice were immunized subcutaneously at the base of the tail with 50 g MOG₃₅₅₅ peptide (Schafer-N, Copenhagen, Denmark) in PBS emulsified in complete Freunds adjuvant (CFA). To induce the development of EAE, MOG-peptide immunized C57Bl/B6 mice were also injected twice (on the same day and two days later) with Pertussis toxin (200 ng; List Biological Laboratories, Inc. Campbell, Ca) in PBS.

Hormone treatment and induction of EAE:

Female WT, PD-L1^/ and PD-L2^/ mice were implanted with 2.5 mg/60-day release 17-estradiol pellets (Innovative Research of America, Sarasota, FL) or sham-treated (control) one week prior to immunization with 200 g mouse (m) MOG_35-55 peptide (PolyPeptide Laboratories, San Diego, CA) in 400 g Complete Freunds adjuvant (CFA, H37Ra, Difco, Detroit, MI). Mice received pertussis toxin (Ptx, List Biologicals, Campbell, CA) on the day of immunization (75 ng) and 2 days later (200 ng). All mice were monitored daily for clinical signs of disease and scored using the following scale: …

Cell Culture:

C3H10T1/2 cells (ATCC) were cultured in BME (Gibco) with 10% fetal bovine serum (PAA Laboratories) and penicillin-streptomycin. Cells were grown at 37C and 5% CO₂. For qPCR analysis, 5.010⁴ cells were plated in a 6-well dish. For protein extracts, 1.010⁶ cells were plated in a 15 cm plate. Where indicated, cells were treated with Shh (1 g/mL; R&D Systems) for 2 hours, 6 hours, or 24 hours. Where indicated, cells were treated for 24 hours with SAG (100 nM; Santa Cruz) or pertussis toxin (PTX; 100 ng/mL; List Biological Laboratories Inc.).
