Fig. 1From: Efficient Mitochondrial Import of Newly Synthesized Ornithine Transcarbamylase (OTC) and Correction of Secondary Metabolic Alterations in spfash Mice following Gene Therapy of OTC DeficiencyOTC labeling in infected and uninfected hepatocytes. The ultrathin frozen liver section from a spfash mouse infected with Ad.mOTC was labeled by the rabbit anti-OTC antibody followed with gold-conjugated goat anti-rabbit antisera. The hepatocyte infected with the OTC virus is characterized by enlarged mitochondria and a much higher mitochondrial OTC labeling density (upper right corner) than in the uninfected hepatocyte (lower left corner). TJ, tight junction complex; BC, bile canaliculus; ER, endoplasmic reticulum. Arrows indicate the lateral membrane of the hepatocytes. Bar, 0.1 µm.Back to article page
