Effects of serum composition on basal FPP and GGPP levels

	FPP (pmol/10⁶ cells) (Mean ± SD)	GGPP (pmol/10⁶ cells) (Mean ± SD)
RPMI-8226, FCS	0.168 ± 0.030	0.273 ± 0.022
RPMI-8226, LPDS	0.122 ± 0.033	0.235 ± 0.096
U266, FCS	1.87 ± 0.271	0.682 ± 0.193
U266, LPDS	15.5 ± 1.25^a	1.115 ± 0.223
SF-295, FCS	0.088 ± 0.002	0.367 ± 0.023
SF-295, LPDS	0.155 ± 0.005^a	0.534 ± 0.032^a
A549, FCS	0.146 ± 0.003	0.291 ± 0.031
A549, LPDS	0.242 ± 0.026^a	0.460 ± 0.048^a

Cells were incubated for 24 h in media containing either standard FCS or LPDS. FPP and GGPP levels were measured as described in the section “Materials and methods”. The means and standard deviations of the results of three independent experiments are shown

p < 0.05 by two-tailed t testing comparing FCS to LPDS levels
