Expression of pc3.1DNA Qa-2 vector in vivo in normal mice. The frequency of Qa-2 protein in splenocytes and macrophages isolated from normal mice injected with 50 μg pc3.1DNA Qa-2 vector as determined by FACS analysis. The macrophages isolated from mice injected with pc3.1DNA Qa-2 vector showed a higher frequency of Qa-2 positive cells when compared to the non-injected control (p = 0.01) and pc3.1 DNA vector-injected mice (p = 0.003). The splenocytes also showed a higher frequency of Qa-2 positive cells when compared to the non-injected control and pc3.1 DNA vector injected mice, although this difference was not significant.
