TRIM72 protein expression and distribution in the IPF lung. a Western blot and quantification of TRIM72 protein in histologically normal para-tumor (control, CTRL) human lung specimens and pathologically confirmed idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) lung specimens. n = 6 for CTRL or IPF groups; b immunostaining of TRIM72 and HT2–280 on CTRL and IPF human lung sections. HT2–280 is a membrane-bound marker for human type II alveolar epithelial cells (ATII). Competitive immunostaining using 10 μg/ml recombinant human TRIM72 protein (rhT72) was included as a control for staining specificity of the anti-human TRIM72 antibody. White arrows = TRIM72 positive ATII cells; asterisks = cellular location of TRIM72. Scale bar = 20 μm for full images, = 5 μm for high magnification images
