Upstream tips	Protocol tips	Downstream tips
For all experiments, cells were incubated in 0.5 μg Fc Block (BD Biosciences) for 10 minutes at RT. Surface staining was performed in the dark for 30 minutes at 4 °C in staining buffer. Cells were then washed twice with staining buffer followed by fixation in 1% paraformaldehyde (VWR, West Chester, PA, USA).		For flow cytometry immunophenotyping experiments, cells were acquired on an LSR II cytometer (BD Immunocytometry Systems, San Jose, CA, USA) equipped with 405 nm, 488 nm, 561 nm, and 640 nm excitation lasers. The spleen FACS experiments were performed using a FACSAria II instrument (BD Immunocytometry Systems) equipped with 405 nm, 488 nm, or 633 nm lasers located at the University of Chicago Flow Cytometry Core Facility, Chicago, IL, USA. All data collection and sorting were performed using BD FACS Diva software (BD Biosciences) and data analyses were performed using FlowJo software (Tree Star, Ashland, OR, USA).

For flow cytometry immunophenotyping experiments, cells were acquired on an LSR II cytometer (BD Immunocytometry Systems, San Jose, CA, USA) equipped with 405 nm, 488 nm, 561 nm, and 640 nm excitation lasers. The spleen FACS experiments were performed using a FACSAria II instrument (BD Immunocytometry Systems) equipped with 405 nm, 488 nm, or 633 nm lasers located at the University of Chicago Flow Cytometry Core Facility, Chicago, IL, USA. All data collection and sorting were performed using BD FACS Diva software (BD Biosciences) and data analyses were performed using FlowJo software (Tree Star, Ashland, OR, USA). Fluorescence minus one (FMO) controls were used for gating analyses to distinguish positively from negatively staining cell populations. Compensation was performed using single color controls prepared from BD Comp Beads (BD Biosciences) for cell surface staining or Arc Beads (Invitrogen) for Aqua live/dead discrimination. Compensation matrices were calculated and applied using FlowJo software (Tree Star). Biexponential transformation was adjusted manually when necessary.
