<p class="jove_content">Transgenic mice or viral vectors have been used to increase protein expression within the lung. However, these techniques are time-consuming, technically challenging and have off-target effects that can confound results. Our protein transfection protocol uses a lipid based transfection reagent and an ultrafine microsprayer to uniformly deliver active protein to lung cells.</p>

Protein Transfection of Mouse Lung

Increasing protein expression enables researchers to  better understand the functional role of that protein in regulating key  biological processes1. In ...
