Figure Lengend Snippet: PF14-mRNA nanoparticles are with suitable characteristics for cellular delivery. ( A,B ) For DLS, nanoparticles were prepared using PF14 and four different mRNAs: mCherry, luciferase, EGFP and Cy5-mRNA at charge ratio (CR) 2:1. If indicated, nanoparticles were supplemented with PS80, chloroquine, MgCl 2 and/or CaCl 2 . The white bars represent the treatments, where only PF14 or indicated mRNAs were added to the cells. Data are representative of three technical replicates and expressed as ± SEM, n = 3, one-way ANOVA with post-hoc Šidák test was used, ns – not significant, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, **** p < 0.0001.
Article Snippet: mRNAs: Anti-reverse cap analogue (ARCA) mRNA encoding enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP), i.e., EGFP-mRNA (5-moUTP), ARCA Cy5-labeled EGFP-mRNA (5mo-UTP), and CleanCap mCherry-mRNA (5mo-UTP) were purchased from APExBIO Technology (Houston, TX, USA), and CleanCap Fluc-mRNA, i.e., luciferase-mRNA (5moU) from TriLink Biotechnologies (San Diego, CA, USA).
Techniques: Luciferase
