Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Immunoblot analysis of NR4A1 in WT and Nr4a1 -/- primary microglia treated with or without ATP (1 mM) + LPS (100 ng/ml). (B) Immunoblot analysis of NR4A1 expression in the cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions of untreated and ATP+LPS-treated primary microglia. (C) Co-IP-MS/MS analysis of Flag-NR4A1-interacting proteins. (D, E) Representative GO terms of cellular components and molecular functions enriched in Flag-NR4A1-interacting proteins. (F) Representative images of untreated and ATP+LPS-treated primary microglia showing colocalization of NR4A1 with DCP1A. Scale bar, 50 and 5 μm. (G, H) In situ proximity ligation assay assessing the interactions between NR4A1 and DCP1A (red) in negative control, unstimulated and ATP+LPS-treated primary microglia. Scale bar, 50 and 10 μm ( n = 50 cells counted in each group). (I) Immunoblot analysis of DCP1A in BV2 cell (expressing FLAG-NR4A1) lysates immunoprecipitated with an anti-FLAG antibody. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. In ( H ), one-way ANOVA with post hoc Dunnett’s test. *** P < 0.001. The underlying data for this figure can be found in . The original blot for this figure can be found in . Co-IP, coimmunoprecipitation; WT, wild-type.

Article Snippet: NR4A1-binding RNAs were precipitated from 5.0 × 10 7 ATP+LPS-stimulated BV2 cells with anti-NR4A1 (sc-166166, Santa Cruz Biotechnology) antibody, and rRNAs were then removed using Ribo-off rRNA Depletion Kit (N406-01/02, Vazyme) according to the manufacturer’s instruction.
