Expression of lipid metabolism associated proteins in response to infection of HEK293T/17 cells with DENV 4. HEK293T/17 cells were either infected with a laboratory adapted DENV-4LAB (lab) or a low passage DENV-4DHF (DHF) as previously described [27] or mock infected (Mock) and (a) the expression of acetyl CoA carboxylase alpha (ACC), peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPARγ) and fatty acid synthase (FASN) determined by western blotting together with actin. Experiments were undertaken independently in triplicate and signals quantitated (b). Bars show mean +/−SD (*; p value <0.05)
