Experimental Human Endotoxemia (IV LPS Administration)

… Following that, it was continuously given at a rate of 150mL/h for the remaining duration of the experiment. Promptly after prehydration, a bodyweight-adjusted bolus dose of 1ng/kg LPS (Escherichia coli-derived, Type O0113, lot no.94332B1; List Biological Laboratories, Campbell, CA, USA) was administered. Blood samples were serially obtained to construct time-concentration curves of circuiting cytokines (Jansen et al., 2022). Temperature and cardiovascular monitoring (blood pressure and heart rate) and sickness symptoms (headache, muscle pain, back pain, nausea, shivers and vomiting were recorded throughout the whole experiment with intervals of 30 minutes. …

Tract tracing and immunohistochemistry

For tracer injections, bats were anesthetized by isoflurane inhalation in a custom stereotaxic apparatus. A 1mm x 1mm craniotomy was made over the primary motor cortex. A tracer deposit via iontophoretic injection (5μA, 10 min) at varying depths was made targeting the deep layers of the primary motor cortex using 10% biotinylated dextran amine (BDA; 10,000 MW) (Life Technologies) (n=4, males) or 1% cholera toxin subunit B (CTB, List Biological Laboratories) in nucleus ambiguus/brainstem (n=2, males). …

EAE induction

Female mice (7–10 weeks old) were prepared for acclimatisation at least 1 week before the experiment and immunised with an emulsion containing 150 μg of I-Ab MOG35-55 peptide (MEVGWYRSPFSRVVHLYRNGK; MBL Life science, Japan, cat#: TS-704-P) and 500 μg of Mycobacterium tuberculosis extract H37RA in complete Freund’s adjuvant (Chondrex, WA, USA, cat#: 7023) by subcutaneous injection on the both sides of the back. 400 µg of Pertussis toxin (List Biological Laboratories, CA, USA, cat#: 180) diluted in D-PBS (nakarai tesque, cat#: 14249-24) was intraperitoneally administrated at 0- and 48-h postimmunization. …
