FIG. 3.

The lentiviral plasmid maps and direct fluorescence images of reporter gene GFP expression. (A) Plasmid map of the c-Jun-IRES-eGFP vector (LV/c-Jun); (D) plasmid map of the eGFP vector (LV/GFP). Direct fluorescence images of reporter gene GFP expression in SCs at 48 h (B, E) and 72 h (C, F) after LV/c-Jun (B, C) or LV/GFP (E, F) transduction. In both groups, over 90% of SCs expressed GFP 72 h after transduction. Scale bars: (B, C, E, F)=150 μm. Color images available online at www.liebertpub.com/tea
