Firstly, MLE-12 cells with stable YAP1 overexpression were transfected with LC3-GFP (Beyotime, D2815, China) and cultured in eight-well plates for 24 h. Secondly, the cells in each group were treated with LPS and bafilomycin A1 (BafA1) (Abcam, ab120497, UK) for 24 h. Thirdly, the cells were permeated by 0.03% Triton X-100 (Beyotime, China) for 60 min and then fixed and blocked with 0.1% BSA (Beyotime, China) for 1 h. Finally, the primary anti-ferritin (Abcam, ab75973, UK) and secondary antibodies were applied to the medium in turn. MLE-12 cells were analyzed via confocal laser scanning microscopy and evaluated by fluorescence microscopy (Nikon TE-2000, Tokyo, Japan).
For immunofluorescence staining in lung tissues, the samples were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 1 h, washed completely with PBST (1× PBS added with 0.1% Triton X-100) for three times, and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 1 h. Then, the samples were incubated with primary antibodies including anti-LC3 (1:100, AF5402, Affinity Biosciences) and anti-ferritin (1:100, Abcam, ab75973) for 10 h at 4°C. After three times of washing with PBST, the samples were incubated with secondary antibodies, and nuclei were stained with DAPI. After washing again, the samples were imaged with a confocal microscope (Nikon TE-2000).

Cells were plated at 300,000 cells per well in 6-well plates and grown to confluence. Media was then removed, cells were washed twice with PBS, and 200 μL of RIPA lysis buffer containing sigma protease inhibitor cocktail (P8340, 1:100) was added to each well. Cells were incubated in lysis buffer for 10 min at RT then scrapped and collected. Lysates were analyzed by BCA and normalized for total protein content with lysis buffer then denatured in Laemmli loading buffer with 0.01 M DTT at 100 °C for 10 min. 10 μg of protein from each sample was then loaded onto Biorad Mini-PROTEAN® TGX 4–15% gels and run @ 150V for 55 min then transferred to Immobilon PVDF membrane at 35 V for 1 h. The membrane was blocked with 5% non-fat milk in TBS-T for 1 h at rt then incubated with the indicated antibodies in 2.5% non-fat milk overnight at 4 °C. The blot was then washed three-times with TBS-T and once with PBS-T before incubating with Licor IRDye secondary antibodies in Odyssey blocking buffer (#927-40000) + 0.2% Tween-20 and 0.01% Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
