To detect LAMP2 or GAPDH transcript expression, cellular RNA was extracted using RNeasy Mini Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA, United States) and cDNA was generated using the High-Capacity cDNA Reverse Transcription Kit (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, United States). Primers for LAMP2 and GAPDH amplification were described (Perez et al., 2016 (link)). LAMP2 cDNA was amplified using 2X ReddyMix PCR Master Mix (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, United States) for 35 cycles. GAPDH cDNA was amplified for 30 cycles. PCR products were resolved by agarose gel.
