Uptake and stability of a decoy oligonucleotide. Actively growing cells were treated with a solution containing decoy and the uptake of the oligonucleotide and its stability estimated by qrt-PCR. After transfection with 20 nM A24.1, cells were harvested and washed before qrt-PCR was used to estimate copies of decoy remaining in the cell as a function of time. The data represent three independent determinations.
