Effects of Carbamazepine on 32D cl 3 Cell Clonogenic Radiation Survival
| Drug Concentration Added | D0 (Gy) | ñ |
|---|---|---|
| Control | 1.5 ± 0.1 | 1.5 ± 0.3 |
| 1 μM Before Irradiation | 2.1 ± 0.2 (p = 0.012) | 1.0 ± 0.1 |
| 1 μM After Irradiation | 1.6 ± 0.2 | 10.1 ± 4.2 (p = 0.011) |
| 10 μM Before Irradiation | 2.3 ± 0.1 (p = 0.010) | 1.0 ± 0.1 |
| 10 μM After Irradiation | 1.2 ± 0.1 | 5.5 ± 1.7 (p = 0.019) |
| 100 μM Before Irradiation | 3.6 ± 0.7 (p = 0.003) | 1.0 ± 0.1 |
| 100 μM After Irradiation | 1.3 ± 0.8 | 3.6 ± 0.8 (p = 0.014) |
| Glyburide 10 μM Before Irradiation (Jiang et al. 2009) | 1.1 ± 0.2 | 34.9 ± 0.5 (p = 0.002) |
Four-well plates with 500 or 1000 cells per plate were scored at day 7 for colonies of ≥ 50 cells as described in Materials and Methods. Drugs were dissolved DMSO as described in the Methods. The p values compare each drug concentration above to non-drug treated irradiated cells using the SHMT model (Epperly et al. 2003). DMSO (< 1%) was added to control irradiated cultures and had no effect on the radiation survival compared to irradiation alone.
