  • * P < 0.01, AS vs. S in KB-G2 cells only.

  • P < 0.01, AS+TF vs. S+TF in KB-G2 cells only.

  • AS = antisense DNA; S = sense DNA; AS+TF = AS DNA complexed withTransFast Reagent; S+TF = S DNA complexed with TransFast Reagent.

  • Values are mean ± SD for number of positive cells and total number of cells.
