β₂AR expression in infected vs. control HEK 293 cells. HEK 293 cells were cultured in DMEM with either 5% CS or 10% FBS then either mock infected (control) or infected with AAV-β₂AR/EGFP. Cells were harvested and incubated at 30°C for 20 minutes with a saturating concentration of [³H]DHA to determine β₂AR levels as described in Methods. Non-specific binding was defined with 0.1 μM (-)-propranolol. Values are the means ± S.E. from five different experiments.
