Table 2.
Percentage of labeled epithelium following transfection, electroporation or adenoviral infection. The percentage of epithelial cells labeled represents the average counts from 100 cells over five fields from three different buds.
% explants with any expression | % explants with epithelial expression | % epithelial cells | |
GeneJuice | 75 (3/4) | 0 (0/4) | 0 |
Electroporation | 73.8 (31/42) | 11.9 (5/42) | 0.9 ± 0.3 |
AdLacZ - Dispase | 100 (24/24) | 25 (6/24) | 2.3 ± 1.3 |
AdLacZ + Dispase | 100 (25/25) | 68 (17/25) | 29.1 ± 1.1*** |
*** p < 0.001. One-way ANOVA (non-parametric). SEM given for % epithelial cells labeled.
