  1. The band density of mitochondrial related proteins were compared between cerebral, neuroblastoma, and RGC-5 derived mitochondrial samples for METC complexes I-IV. A comparison of VDAC and PMP70 expression were used to determine the presence of non-METC mitochondrial components and peroxisomal contamination, respectively. Cerebral, RGC-5, and neuroblastoma values are given as ratios compared to the band density of cerebral mitochondria.
