Traditionally, this was achieved by using TCR transgenic mice. In the past decade, a more efficient approach for single TCR expression was developed. This relatively rapid and accessible method utilizes retrovirus-mediated stem cell–based gene transfer and is commonly referred to as the TCR retrogenic approach. In this approach, hematopoietic bone marrow precursors are transduced with retroviral vector carrying both alpha and beta chains of a T cell receptor. After successful transduction, bone marrow is injected into recipient mice, in which T cell development is driven by expression of the vector-encoded TCR. This article details the materials and methods required to generate TCR retrogenic mice. It is divided into three sections and provides detailed methods for generation of stable retroviral producer cell lines, isolation and optimal transduction of hematopoietic bone marrow cells, and subsequent analysis of TCR retrogenic T cells. A detailed example of such analysis is provided. The current protocol is a culmination of many years of optimization and is the most efficient approach to date. Bone marrow transduction and transfer into recipient mice can now be achieved in a short period of four days. The protocol can be followed in most laboratories with standard biomedical equipment, and is supported by a troubleshooting guide that covers potential pitfalls and unexpected results. © 2019 by John Wiley &amp; Sons, Inc.</p>","PeriodicalId":10733,"journal":{"name":"Current Protocols in Immunology","volume":"125 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1002/cpim.76","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37244004","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The use of Aldara™, a cream that contains the TLR7 and TLR8 agonist imiquimod (IMQ), was found to exacerbate psoriasis in some patients with pre‐existing disease. Intradermal injections of IL‐23 and topical application of Aldara/IMQ induce skin inflammation in mice with features similar to psoriasis—including epidermal hyperplasia and accumulation of inflammatory cells in epidermis and dermis—which is mediated by IL‐17A, IL‐22, and other factors implicated in the human disease. Consequently, these models can be used in preclinical studies to investigate the molecular and cellular pathogenesis of psoriasis, as well as in the evaluation of potential therapies. This article provides detailed methodologies for creating and evaluating the IL‐23‐ and Aldara/IMQ‐induced mouse models of psoriasis.

LAP is triggered upon receptor-mediated phagocytosis and is characterized by the formation of a single-membrane vesicle decorated with the autophagy protein LC3. In professional phagocytic cells, such as macrophages, the role of LAP in immune processes has been characterized, although how LAP functions at the molecular level remains poorly defined. It is important to point out that as for all autophagic pathways, the study of LAP is still challenging for the scientific community because it is a dynamic and complex process, requiring interactions among several proteins.
