Figure Lengend Snippet: ( a ) reports representative dot plots obtained evaluating GFP positive cells by flow cytometry after NF of a pEGFP C2 vector encoding for CD63 in 10% FBS and 5% SRGF by C17 program. The gating threshold (vertical solid line) identifying GFP negative cells was defined analyzing ASC after NF without DNA vector (as control). ( b ) reports the evaluation by Western blot analysis of CD63 overexpression after NF by C-17 program of a pEGFP C2 vector encoding for CD63. For Western blot analysis, a pEGFP C2 empty vector was transfected (as control condition) in both 10% FBS and 5% SRGF by C17 program. Original unmodified images of analyzed Western blot are reported in . CD63 band density quantification was expressed as percent ratio to the housekeeping gene GAPDH. *; p < 0.01 vs. 10% FBS ASC. Reported images and quantification values represent results derived from at least three independent experimental tests.
Article Snippet: In such experiments, NF of 1 μg of the mammalian expression vector pEGFP C2 (AddGene) containing the CD63 gene sequence was performed.
