Experimental animals and surgical procedures:

… After completion of the behavioral testing, the rats were reanesthetized with isoflurane, and the left median nerve was exposed and 5 µl of 5% cholera toxin subunit B (CTB, List Biological Laboratories, Campbell, CA) injected into the left median nerve. Seven days later tissue was collected for analysis. …

… TMBPGFP blast cells (2 days after re-stimulation) were cultured for 1 h in the presence of 100 ng ml21 of PTX (List Biological Laboratories) or its B subunit (Calbiochem). These cells were used for transfer EAE. The chosen dose of PTX was able to block CXCL11- and CCL5-mediated trans-well transmigration of in-vitro- and ex-vivo-isolated TMBPGFP cells. …

… Ultra pure lipopolysaccharide (LPS; from Escherichia coli 0111:B4) was purchased from List Biological Laboratories, Inc. (Campbell, CA). …

Transfection and reporter gene assays:

RAW264.7 cells (2 10⁶ cells/well) were plated into 6-well plates and then incubated for 24 hr to reach approximately 80% confluence. Cells were co-transfected with pRL-TK-luciferase (1 g) and wild type or mutant Irak-m promoter-luciferase reporter constructs (3 g) using Lipofectamine (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. … Transfected cells were incubated for 6 hr, pooled, and washed 3 times with culture media. Cells (1 or 210⁵ cells/well in 96-well culture plates) were stimulated with medium, CpG DNA (6 g/ml), non-CpG DNA (6 g/ml), LPS (50 ng/ml), …
