Objective To transfect pBillneo-connexin43 (Cx43) plasmids into L6 skeletal myoblasts mediated by cationic liposome. Methods L6 myoblast-Cx43 monoclone cells were selected by using G418. The expression of connexin 43 was analyzed by immunocytochemical staining and Western blot. Results Two L6 myoblast-Cx43 cell clones were obtained
expressing Cx43 gene in higher level than that in control group. Conclusion L6 myoblast-Cx43 monoclonal engineering cell has been prepared successfully. It can be used to investigate electrical coupling between the grafted cells or between the grafted cells and the host cardiomyocytes.
