Figure 2. HNSCC cell lines require glucose for survival.

Figure 2

Cells were allowed to proliferate for 0–72hr in the presence or absence of glucose [25mM] and glutamine [4mM]. Cells were counted at each time point using Trypan blue to exclude non-viable cells. GLC = D-glucose [20mM], GLN = glutamine [4mM]. Representative images and cell counts are presented for FADU, a cell line sensitive to glucose withdrawal and PCI13, a cell line relatively resistant to glucose withdrawal.
