] Sections and primary microglia were washed 3 times with 1 × PBS and blocked with 5% normal goat serum (Gibco) and 0.2% Triton X‐100 for 1 h. Then, sections were incubated with specific antibodies at 4 °C overnight: anti‐Sting (1:200; 19851‐1‐AP, ProteinTech), anti‐Mfn2 (1:200; ab124773, Abcam), anti‐Iba1 (1:200; ab289874, Abcam), and anti‐iNOS (1:200; ab178945, Abcam). 4′,6‐diamidino‐2‐phenylindole (DAPI) (1:1000, Invitrogen) was used to label the nuclei. All sections and microglia were imaged using a Nikon confocal microscope and analyzed using ImageJ software.

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.
