Figure 5. Protein levels of total acetyl-lysine protein content and mRNA levels of the HTA p300 in muscles of both COPD patients and controls.

Mean values and standard deviation of total protein acetyl-lysine/vinculin protein loading control as measured in optical densities (OD) using arbitrary units (a.u.) (A) and HTA p300 (B), levels in the vastus lateralis did not differ (n.s., non-significant) between the two study groups.
