To observe the autophagosomes, NP Cells were transfected with a GFP-LC3-expressing adenovirus for 24 h. Subsequently, the transfected cells were used for the next experiments. The autophagosomes were observed through laser confocal microscopy and the level of autophagy was evaluated with the number of green fluorescent puncta of autophagosomes.
