Figure 3

Results from reverse transcription PCR analysis. Upper panel showing RT-PCR band in agarose gel of metallothionein type 2 ((a),(c)) and ubiquitin ((b),(d)) transcripts after treatment with different concentrations of CuCl2 (0, 20, 40, and 80  M in lane no. 1, 2, 3, and 4, resp.). Lower panel showing densitometry graph of corresponding band of MT2. Data represent the mean SE. Asterisks indicate significant differences at (*), (**), or (***) compared to respective controls. AU means arbitrary unit.
