Figure 9. Effect of serum on c-Fos mRNA (A) and protein (B) expression.

Figure 9

Above each of the graphs a representative Northern and Western blot is presented showing c-Fos mRNA (A) and protein expression (B) after stimulation of quiescent cells with 10 % serum. A, kinetics of the increment in c-Fos mRNA in serum-treated VSMC. B, kinetics of the increment in protein content in serum-treated VSMC. Since serum time-dependently augmented GAPDH mRNA, we did not use its content to normalize c-Fos mRNA expression. The value of c-Fos mRNA and protein expression in untreated cells was taken as 100 %. Means ± s.e.m. from three experiments are given.
