Figure Legend Snippet: FIGURE 1. IL-37 protein levels were decreased in the lungs of patients with IPF. (A) Immunohistochemical staining of IL-37 in human lungs. IL-37 expression levels were examined in normal subjects (NSs) and in IPF lungs. IL-37 was strongly localized in AECs (inset) and alveolar macrophages (red arrows) in NSs. Original magnification 340, inset; original magnification 31000. (B) Lung IL-37 expression was measured by immunoblotting. Densi- tometry of IL-37 bands. Equal amounts of proteins obtained from lung lysates were subjected to immunoblotting with anti–IL-37 Ab. The blots were stripped and reprobed with anti–b-actin Ab. Lung tissues were obtained from patients with IPF and NSs who underwent thoracic surgery. *p , 0.05 versus NS. BALF (C) and serum (D) levels of IL-37, measured by ELISA. Dashed line represents the detection limit. *p , 0.05 versus NS.
Techniques Used: Immunohistochemical staining, Staining, Expressing, Western Blot, Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay
Figure Legend Snippet: FIGURE 2. IL-37 is expressed in the AECs and macrophages in the mouse lung and are decreased by BLM. (A) Immunohistochemical staining of IL-37 in mouse lungs. IL-37 was strongly localized in AECs (inset) and alveolar macrophages in the control lung. Original magnification 3100, inset, original magnifi- cation 3400. (B) IL-37 expression was quantified by immunoblotting and densitometric analysis (n = 6 per group). *p , 0.05 versus control. Equal amounts of proteins obtained from lung lysates were subjected to immunoblotting with anti–IL-37 Ab. The blots were stripped and reprobed with anti–b-actin Ab.
Techniques Used: Immunohistochemical staining, Staining, Control, Expressing, Western Blot
Figure Legend Snippet: FIGURE 3. Antiapoptotic effect of IL-37 on BLM-treated AECs. (A) Mouse primary AECs were exposed to BLM (10 mg/ml) and/or human IL-37 (10, 100, and 1000 ng/ml) for 24 h in serum-free medium. *p , 0.05 versus apoptosis or necrosis of the BLM+/IL-372–treated groups. Apoptosis was defined as Annexin V+/both PI+ and PI2. Necrosis was defined as PI+/both Annexin V+ and Annexin V2. (B) IL-37 siRNA and scrambled siRNA were transfected into A549 cells. BLM (10 mg/ml) was added 48 h post-siRNA transfection, and the samples were analyzed after 24 h. The cells were double stained with Annexin V/PI and analyzed by flow cytometry. *p , 0.05 versus apoptosis or necrosis of the scramble/BLM+-treated groups.
Techniques Used: Transfection, Staining, Cytometry
