2-Deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) induces endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. (a) Neuroblastoma (NB) cell lines were treated with 2 mM 2-DG for 8 or 24 h, and the levels of the unfolded protein response (UPR) markers GRP78, GRP94 and C/EBP homology protein (CHOP) were then determined using western blot analysis. (b) NB cells were treated with 500 nM 17-N-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), 2-DG (0.5 and 2 mM) or both, and cell viability was determined using MTS assays (n=3). *P<0.05 compared with vehicle-treated controls, #P<0.05 for treatment with 17-AAG+2-DG compared with treatment with 2-DG alone.
