Supplemental material and method Ag-presenting CpG-activated pDCs prime Th17 cells that induce tumor regression Leslie Guéry, Juan Dubrot, Carla Lippens, Dale Brighouse, Pauline Malinge, MagaliIrla, Caroline Pot, Jean-Marc Waldburger, and StéphanieHugues Tumor supernatant extraction In some experiments, tumors were dissociated using Miltenyidissociator in culture medium with 1% BSA (1mL for 500mg of tumor). Chemokine production in tumor supernatant was assessed by luminex technology (R&D) on Bio-Plex 200 luminex device (Biorad). Transwell migration assay Migration assays were performed using 24-well transwells with polycarbonate membranes (pore size 5uM). Tumor supernatants were placed in the lower chamber and 5.105 cells extracted from dLN were resuspended in 200μL of RPMI with 1% BSA and placed in the upper chamber. 2h later, migrated cells in the lower chamber were counted using flow cytometry (Accuri C6). qPCR primers sequences Tnf forward, 5’-ACAGAAAGCATGATCCGCG-3’and reverse, 5’-GCCCCCCATCTTTTGGG-3’; Il-6 forward, 5’-CTGCAAGAGACTTCCATCCAGTT-3’and reverse, 5’-GAAGTAGGGAAGGCCGTGG-3’;Il-1βforward, 5’-CGGCACACCCACCCTG-3’ and reverse, 5’-AAACCGCTTTTCCATCTTCTTCT-3’;Ifn-βforward, 5’-atgagtggtggttgcaggc-3’ and reverse, 5’-tgacctttcaaatgca gtagattca-3’; Ifn-α4 forward, 5′-CCTGTGTGATGCAGGAACC-3′ and reverse, 5′-TCACCTCCCAGGCACAGA-3′; L32 forward, 5’-GAAACTGGCGGAAACCCA-3’ and reverse, 5´-GGATCTGGCCCTTGAACCTT-3’.
