Fig 2. Effect of HIV PIs on radiosensitivity of HNSCC cells.

Fig 2

Human HNSCC cells (SQ20B and FaDu) were cultured in complete medium and treated with different concentrations of HIV PIs (L/R, 12.5μM or 25μM) for 24h. At the end of treatment, cells were exposed to 2Gy or 4Gy of radiation. After irradiation, cells were detached and plated for colony-formation assays to assess clonogenic survival as described in “Methods”. Relative numbers of survival colonies are presented. (A) SQ20B; (B) FaDu; Values are mean ± S.E. of three independent experiments. ** P<0.01, *P<0.05, Statistical significance relative to control group.
