Can we use MAP1LC3A antibody to monitor autophagy in THP1 derived macrophages?

07 January 2018 1 5K Report

In my previous experiments, i used MAP1LC3B (LC3BII) antibody to map autophagy. I want to check the same using MAP1LC3A (LC3AII) antibody. I am aware of their subcellular distinct expression. Can we use the antibody to monitor autophagy?
