Upregulation of splice correction activity in concentration-dependent manner by using small molecule ligands. (a,b) HeLa pLuc/705 cells treated for 24 h with PF14 and splice correction oligo (PF14/SCO) nano-complexes and splice correction activating ligands [Pifithrin-μ (selective inhibitor of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70)), Alprenolol hydrochloride (β-adrenoceptor antagonist), CH-223191 (aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) antagonist), Importazole (nuclear transport receptor importin-β inhibitor), TLR-4-IN-C34 (TLR4 inhibitor), MHY1485 (mTOR activator)]. Splice correction activity is based on luminescence signal from splice corrected luciferase. Splice correction activity was normalized to the baseline signal of untreated cells, and 100% corresponds to PF14/SCO complexes treatment (P < 0.0001).
