From: The interferon stimulated gene viperin, restricts Shigella. flexneri in vitro
Viperin expression lowers cellular cholesterol levels in vitro. Huh-7 and HeLa cells transiently expressing either viperin or transfected with a control plasmid were assessed 24 hours post transfection for their cellular levels of cholesterol. Graphs represent the mean and standard deviation of three independent experiments performed in triplicate, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.001.
