Fig. 4From: Transgene expression in mice of the Opa1 mitochondrial transmembrane protein through bicontinuous cubic lipoplexes containing gemini imidazolium surfactantsWestern blot analysis of Opa1 and GRP75 protein levels in MEFs wt (A) and OPA1-KO MEFs (B) after transfection with (C16Im)2(C4O)/DOPE/DSPE-PEG/OPA1 lipoplexes at ρeff = 2.5 and 4 at different time intervals. The relative ratios of band intensity between Opa1 and GRP75 (lower panels) were quantified by ImageJ. Student’s t-test was performed to measure the significance of statistical difference between the different groups and the control (in the absence of treatment) from 3 independent experiments. (*p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant)Back to article page
