Percentage of apoptotic cells at 24 hour of electroporation mediated transfection of ODNs in K562 leukemic cells. K562 cells were exposed to 150 μg/mL antisense STAT5A, STAT5B and scrambled ODNs (mean ± SD; EtBr/Akridine Orange staining)

K562	SCR treated	STAT5A ODN treated	STAT5B ODN treated
Non-apoptotic cells	83.4 ± 18.2 %	50.9 ± 13.7 %	52.8 ± 3.9 %
Apoptotic cells (early + late stage)	11.7 ± 7.6 %	45.3 ± 14.6 %	40.9 ± 4.8 %
