Electron microscopic analyses for autophagosomal structures and WIPI2 localization in FIP200−/− or Atg13−/− MEFs under hyperosmotic stress. (A) FIP200−/− MEFs were cultured in DMEM with or without (control) 0.8 M sucrose for 1 h and then fixed for EM. The boxed region in the middle is shown enlarged on the right. (B) FIP200−/− MEFs and Atg13−/− MEFs were cultured with 0.8 M sucrose for 30 min and then fixed for immuno-EM using anti-WIPI2 antibody. Note that small autophagosome/IM-like profiles with double membranes (panel A, right, arrowheads), and those labeled with silver-enhanced particles indicating WIPI2 were detected. Asterisk, large endosome-like structures; L, lysosome-like profiles; m, mitochondria; M, degenerated mitochondria; N, nucleus. Bars, 0.5 μm.
