A mouse model of oral infection and evaluation of innate and adaptive immune responses.

is an extracellular enteric bacterial pathogen that induces both innate and adaptive immunity in mice, its natural host. Here, we detail the step-by-step procedure to evaluate the immune responses in a mouse model of infection. We describe the methods to establish infection, isolate group 3 innate lymphoid cells from lamina propria lymphocytes, and analyze their response. We also assess the response of T follicular helper cells and germinal center B cells. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Guo et al. (2015), Kennedy and Hartland, (2018), and Wang et al. (2020).
