Effect of the semi-synthetic flavonoid monoHER on the cytotoxic effects of doxorubicin in the liposarcoma cell line WLS-160. (A) MonoHER pretreatment (50 μM; 1 h) significantly enhances the cell growth inhibition induced by doxorubicin (0.001–0.1 μM; 72 h) (mean±s.d. *P⩽0.05 compared with doxorubicin treatment). (B) MonoHER pretreatment (50 μM; 1 h) significantly enhances the apoptosis induced by doxorubicin (10 μM; 6 h) (mean±s.d. *P⩽0.05 compared with doxorubicin treatment). Relative light units (RLUs); doxorubicin (DOX). (C) MonoHER treatment (50 μM; 1, 6 and 24 h) has no effect on the intracellular GSH concentration, whereas BSO (50 μM; 1, 6 and 24 h) reduces GSH levels in a time-dependent manner (mean±s.d. *P⩽0.05 compared with control). (D) MonoHER pretreatment (50 μM; 1 h) significantly prevents doxorubicin-induced (10 μM; 6 h) NF-κB activation (mean±s.d. *P⩽0.05 compared with doxorubicin treatment).
