Figure 6.
Confocal microscopic images of C2C12 cells treated with FITC-PMO (2 µg) without and with PE-4 (5 µg). Nuclear staining with Hoechst 33258. The images were obtained under a magnification of 63×. Labeled PMO can be observed at lower levels throughout the treated cells; however, with the addition of PE-4, greater levels of labeled PMO can be observed with greater concentrations in the perinuclear space.
Abbreviations: PE, polyelectrolyte; FITC, fluorescein isothiocyanate; PMO, phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomer.
