Co-expression of SOD1-G93A and Bcl-2 induces mitochondrial structural damage. (A) Electron microscopy analysis of mitochondrial structure in HEK293T transfected with SOD1-WT (panels C and D), SOD1-G93A (panels E and F) without (upper panels A, C and E) or with (lower panels B, D and F) Bcl-2. Cells transfected with SOD1-G93A alone show structurally normal mitochondria (panel E), whereas co-expression of Bcl-2 and SOD1-G93A causes morphological changes as shown by extensive internal vacuolization and cristae disorganization (panel F). Images are representative of four experiments. (B) Transfection efficiency and expression levels of SOD1-eGFP and Bcl-2 among different experimental groups were assessed by WB with an anti-eGFP and Bcl-2 antibody, respectively.
