NLRP3/12/15-LOX, Caspase-1, and NLRP3/Caspase-1 immunolabelling at 6-h, 24-h, or 72-h following I/R. Nuclei were stained with Hoechst-33258 (blue) (40X, scale bar = 25 μm). (A) Representative images of NLRP3 (green), 12/15-LOX (red), and Hoechst-33258 (blue) were overlapped in the third panel (n = 3). Double labeling of NLRP3 and 12/15-LOX showed that there was a strong colocalization that acted in parallel and decreased in ML351-treated brains at all time points of I/R. (B) Caspase-1, a downstream effector of inflammasome activation, staining indicated that caspase-1 is increased mainly at 24-h and 72-h of I/R. (C) NLRP3 and caspase-1 double labeling was performed at 24-h of I/R brains, as prominent caspase-1 activation was observed at this time point, which revealed that caspase-1 positive cells were also positive for NLRP3.
