Figure 2. The effect of antibiotics on lipid composition in HMGECs.

Figure 2

a. Cells were treated as described in Fig. 1. Extracted lipid samples were normalized to cell numbers. b. Lipid band intensity was quantified using ImageJ. Control band instensity was set to 1 and data are reported as fold-change compared to control. **p<0.01, *p<0.05. Unlabeled bands are unidentified lipids. Band intensity analysis includes data from five independent experiments. Error bars represent the mean ± standard error. Abbreviations include free cholesterol (FC), cholesterol ester (CE), triglyceride (TG), phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylinositol (PI).
