Figure Lengend Snippet: Deficient ubiquitin-like conjugation activity in Atg7−/− erythroid cells. (A) Western blot analyses of LC3, GABARAP (GRP), GATE-16 (GT16), Atg12, Ter119, BCL-XL, Beclin-1, and β-actin in expanded E14.5 fetal liver cells undergoing differentiation in culture for 2 days. The upper LC3 band corresponds to the unconjugated form of LC3, and the lower band corresponds to the lipid conjugated form of LC3. This same is true for the other Atg8 homologs, GABARAP and GATE-16. Wild-type murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) provide a positive control for the position of the unconjugated and conjugated proteins. Genotypes and days in culture are indicated at the top. (B) Western blot analyses of Atg7, NIX, Beclin-1, and β-actin in primary E14.5 fetal liver cells. NIX protein is expressed as 2 isoforms in erythroid cells, a full-length monomeric form (top band), and a shorter isoform, which has not been fully characterized (bottom band). Beclin-1 is provided as a loading control. Genotypes are indicated at the top.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Mitochondrial depolarization is a consequence of autophagosome formation in reticulocytes. Immunofluorescence of reticulocyte-enriched blood from phlebotomized Atg7+/+ and Atg7−/− transplant recipients, cultured for 3 days, and doubly stained with MTG and TMRM. The mean immunofluorescence intensity per cell of all cells with mitochondria in a representative field was quantified in the red and green channels, and the ratio of the signals was determined. The higher the ratio, the greater the average mitochondrial polarization per cell. The proportion of cells within each range is represented by a chart below each picture (legend at the bottom). Approximately 50 to 100 cells were quantified per sample (field). Note that mitochondria in the Atg7−/− reticulocytes remain polarized, whereas mitochondria in Atg7+/+ reticulocytes do not. No quantification is provided for Atg7+/+ reticulocytes on day 3 due to an insufficient number of cells with mitochondria for analysis. The scale is indicated at the bottom.

Figure Lengend Snippet: In-development paperfluidic HPV tests. (a) Paperfluidic test developed by Rodriguez et al. Example results with input DNA copies ranging from 1E4 to 1E6 and a no-target control (NTC) are shown. Test line intensities indicate positive signals were formed at the test line in the presence of DNA over 1E4 total input copies of HPV 16 DNA; no test line signal formed with the NTC condition, indicating analytic specificity of the test. (b) MAD NAAT test developed by LaFleur et al. Internal components, including sample inlet port, lysis chamber, sample elution mechanisms, amplification reagents, and lateral flow detection are shown (top). The method of use is also shown (bottom), with 5 user steps spanning roughly an hour. (c) OncoE6 8-type test developed by Zhao et al. Left: example lateral flow strips and capture chemistries are shown. Capture antibodies are embedded in lateral flow strips and capture E6/E7 proteins. Detection antibodies form a sandwich assay with the immobilized proteins, and alkaline phosphatase (AP) binds and produces a purple colorimetric signal. Three total test strips are used to detect 8 high-risk types. Right: method of use of OncoE6 8-type test is shown. First, a cervical swab is placed in buffer, and the sample is lysed and conditioned. Next the sample is added to detection buffer, and lateral flow strips are placed into the mixture. The lateral flow strips are then moved into different buffers for washing and signal development. Finally, test strips are read by ensuring control lines are positive on all strips and identifying colorimetric signals at any of the test lines. In this figure, the sample is positive for type 16.
