MOG-Induced EAE in C57BL/6 Mice.

… The emulsification was made from equal parts of oil and liquid portions (1:1) in two syringes connected to each other with Leur lock, transferred to an insulin syringe, and 0.2 mL was injected to the right flank of each mouse. On the day of immunization, pertussis toxin (200 ng/mL) was injected i.p. at a volume dose of 0.2 mL/mouse. The injection of the pertussis toxin (i.p) was repeated after 48 h to boost the immune ecognition reaction. …

2.2 Regional Iba-1 responses in an in vivo ferret model of inflammation-sensitized perinatal brain injury

On the morning of P17, ferret kits were removed from the nest, weighed, and randomized to either the nonsurgical control or the hypoxic-ischemic-hyperoxic (HIH)-exposed group, as previously described.4 Briefly, controls and HIH-exposed ferrets received 3 μl/g saline vehicle or 3 mg/kg lipopolysaccharide (LPS, ultrapure from E. coli 055:B5, List Biological, CA) intraperitoneally, respectively. Animals that received LPS underwent a bilateral carotid ligation under isoflurane anesthesia (3%–5%) plus buprenorphine (0.05 mg/kg) analgesia. …

CHO Cell Cluster Response—Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) K-1 cells were obtained from ATCC and maintained in F12 + 10% FBS. For CHO cell-PT assays, CHO cells were plated in a 96-well tissue culture plate at 2.5 × 104/mL in F12 + 1% heat-inactivated (HI) FBS and grown overnight at 37 °C, 5% CO2. PT preparations purified in the Hewlett lab and obtained from List Laboratories were comparable in activity. PT was added at indicated concentrations to duplicate wells and the mixture incubated for 24 h at 37 °C, 5% CO2. …

EAE induction

EAE was induced in 8–10-week-old female C57Bl/6 mice (Jackson Laboratories, Bar Harbor, ME). Mice received a subcutaneous immunization at each hind flank of 50 μg of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG35–55) in complete Freund’s adjuvant (CFA; Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA) supplemented with myobacterium tuberculosis on day 0. Pertussis toxin (List Biological Laboratories, Hornby, ON, Canada) was administered via intraperitoneal injection at a dose of 300 ng/200 μL on days 0 and 2. …
