2. Fig 1
A double-membrane autophagosome was detected in a fibroblast from a bronchial biopsy tissue sample of a patient with moderate asthma. Tissue was viewed at magnifications of ×1,480 (A), ×16,100 (B), and ×62,200 (C). Boxed areas were viewed at higher magnification in subsequent illustrations. An arrow indicates an autophagosome. A corresponding fibroblast from a healthy subject was viewed at magnifications of ×4,030 (D), ×16,100 (E), and ×37,000 (F), respectively.

3. Fig 2
Autophagosomes were detected in bronchial epithelial cells from a patient with moderate asthma. Tissue was viewed at magnifications of ×4030 (A), ×9760 (B), and ×37,000 (C), respectively. Corresponding epithelial cells of a healthy subject were viewed at magnifications of ×6,390 (D), ×16,100 (E), and ×37,000 (F), respectively. Arrows indicate double-membrane autophagosomes.
