DMSO, dimethyl sulfoxide.

a

The values represent the mean ± S.D. of three independent experiments performed in triplicate.

b

Relative resistance values (in parentheses) were obtained by dividing the IC50 value of the Arg482-HEK293 cells by the IC50 value of the empty vector pcDNA3.1-transfected HEK cell line.
