Regulation of extracellular ATP burst in cotransfected astrocytes. Fold change showing extracellular ATP release in PDA after 24 h of transfection with HIV-1 Tat, mortalin, and cotransfection (mortalin and HIV-1 Tat), and empty vectors were taken as control (n=5). All data represents mean ± standard deviation, from independent experiments (n stands for number of independent experiment), *p< 0.05, **p< 0.005 with respect to control, #p< 0.05 with respect to HIV-1 Tat and cotransfected group. Color shades represent black blocks which are for plasmid control (PC), dark grey which are HIV-1 Tat, white blocks which are overexpressed mortalin, and light grey which are cotransfected with mortalin and HIV-1 Tat
