Luciferase (lux) expression in the murine lung after transfection with invasive E. coli. The lungs of mice were infected with invasive E. coli BM4570 carrying the eukaryotic expression plasmid pCIKLux (5 × 108 and 2.5 × 109 CFU (colony-forming unit) per mouse). Lungs were harvested 48 h post-infection and lux activity assayed. Bacteria-mediated lux expression was compared to mice transfected with pCIKLux complexed to the cationic lipid GL67 (GL67/pCIKLux) or PBS (phosphate buffered saline) controls. Data are expressed as mean±s.e.m. (n = 4–8, **P<0.01, when compared to PBS and GL67/pCIKLux).
