---|---|---|---|---|---|
Treatment group | n | IC50 (μmol/L) | P* | IC50 (μmol/L) | P* |
AO-1 | 3 | >100 | - | >100 | - |
Paclitaxel | 3 | 0.038 ± 0.004 | - | 0.024 ± 0.004 | - |
Paclitaxel/AO-I | 3 | 0.011 ± 0.004* | 0.027 | 0.029 ± 0.006 | 0.500 |
Paclitaxel/LPS | 3 | 0.082 ± 0.002* | 0.044 | 0.033 ± 0.004 | 0.100 |
EOC cells were treated with vehicle or paclitaxel plus AO-I (100 μmol/L) or paclitaxel plus LPS (1 μg/ml) for 72 hours. Relative number of viable cells was assayed using MTT. IC50 values were measured as a curvilinear regression equation for each survival curve. Data represent mean values ± S.D. from three independent experiments.
*P values, compared with paclitaxel alone.
