Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Full-length LATS2, LATS2-LATCH and LATS2-LATCH-4mut, were tested for binding to LIMD1 by co-immunoprecipitation. Lysates were prepared from HEK293A cells separately transfected with GFP-tagged LATS2, LATS2-LATCH, LATS2-LATCH-4mut, or LIMD1-V5. Lysates from cells expressing LIMD1-V5 were mixed separately with those expressing the different GFP-LATS2/LATCH constructs, and anti-LIMD1 or control (IgG) antibodies were used to isolate immune complexes. Immune complexes and lysates were probed by Western blotting for LATS2/LATCH (GFP) and LIMD1 (V5). (B) Live-cell imaging of MCF10A cells stably expressing GFP tagged LATS2-LATCH or LATS2-LATCH-4mut. (C) Live-cell imaging of MCF10A cells stably expressing GFP tagged LATS2-LATCH treated with (Blebbistatin) or without (DMSO) Blebbistatin.

doi: 10.1038/s12276-024-01280-5

Figure Lengend Snippet: Fig. 4 Macrophage Foxo1 deficiency increases YAP/NICD activity and inhibits STING activation in HFD-induced oxidative stress. a Nuclear YAP and NICD expression were substantially increased in macrophages after HFD feeding. The data are representative of three experiments. b Liver macrophages were isolated from WT mice and stimulated with a mixture of 0.2 mM palmitic acid (PA) and 0.4 mM oleic acid (OA) for 24 h. PA/OA stimulation activated JNK and increased nuclear Foxo1 and PGC-1α expression in macrophages. c PA and OA stimulation increased the expression of p-LATS1 and LIMD1, leading to reduced cytoplasmic YAP phosphorylation and increased nuclear YAP expression in macrophages. d Immunofluorescence staining showing macrophage LIMD1 (green) and LATS1 (red) colocalization in PA/OA-stimulated macrophages. DAPI was used to visualize nuclei (blue). Scale bars, 30 μm. e Immunoprecipitation analysis showed that PA/OA challenge augmented the colocalization and interaction of LIMD1 and LATS1 in macrophages. f Liver macrophages from WT mice were transfected with CRISPR/Cas9-mediated LIMD1 KO or control vector after PA/OA challenge. Moreover, LIMD1 KO increased cytoplasmic YAP phosphorylation and reduced nuclear YAP expression. g Disruption of macrophage Foxo1 markedly increased PGC-1α, YAP, and NICD levels and reduced p-STING expression in response to PA/OA challenge. h Liver macrophages from Foxo1M-KO mice were transfected with CRISPR/Cas9-mediated PGC-1α KO or control vector after PA/OA stimulation. Immunoprecipitation analysis revealed that CRISPR/Cas9-mediated PGC-1α KO in the Foxo1M-KO cells reduced the interaction of YAP with the NICD and augmented p-STING expression. Notes: Foxo1M-KO activates YAP/NICD and inhibits STING activation in PA/OA-stimulated macrophages. All Western blots represent three experiments, and the data are presented as the mean±SD.
