(A) Steady-state mRNA of the Raf-1 gene indicated by fold change in nanocellulose, and Au/cellulose nanocomposites compared with DMSO-treated cells. (B) Steady-state mRNA of the p53 gene indicated by fold change in nanocellulose and Au/cellulose nanocomposites in comparison with DMSO-treated cells. Levels of GAPDH-mRNA were used as an internal control. * p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant and ** p < 0.01 as highly significant.
