 Effect of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) transfection on the paclitaxel‐induced apoptotic death of epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) cells. (A) Detection of paclitaxel‐induced apoptosis using Annexin V and propidium iodide (PI) assays of SKpc and SKDP cells treated with 100 ng/mL of paclitaxel for 48 h. The percentage of apoptotic cells calculated by flow cytometric analysis is presented. Each value (%) indicates Annexin V (+)/ PI (+) cells. (B) Change in expressions of apoptosis‐related proteins with or without paclitaxel treatment using Western blot analysis. (C) Western blot analysis demonstrated down‐regulated TWIST expression in SKDP compared to SKpc cells in the presence or absence of paclitaxel.
