The method of western blot was performed as previously described (Pan et al., 2018 (link)). Briefly, lung tissues or RAW264.7 cells were lysed with RIPA lysis buffer with the protease inhibitor cocktail (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Protein concentrations were determined by the BCA assay kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China). Proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE and electrotransferred onto PVDF membranes. Protein bands were detected by Enhanced Chemiluminescent Substrate Kit (YEASEN, Shanghai, China) and imaged with Tanon 1600 (Tanon, Shanghai, China).
