Figure 3. Induction of AS of Casp-2 mRNA and the inhibition of activity of caspase 2 as a result of cell transfection with SSO. mRNA levels of total Casp-2 (A) and its splice-variants: Casp-2L (B) and Casp-2S (C), which were determined by real-time RT-PCR. Enzymatic activity of caspase 2 in transfected cells. * p ≤ 0.05 vs. cells transfected with control 30-mer oligonucleotide.
