The level of mtDNA was measured by assessing the relative levels of mtDNA-ND1 to nDNA-B3M using a PCR analysis of total DNA extracted from human HLE and Huh7 cells. The following amplification primers (5′ to 3′) were described previously [35]: mtDNA-ND1 (sense, CCCTAAAACCCGCCACATCT; antisense, GAGCGATGGTGAGAGCTAAGGT) and nDNA-B3M (sense, TGCTGTCTCCATGTTTGATGTATCT; antisense: TCTCTGCTCCCCACCTCTAAGT).
