(A) (left) RKIP OE CNE2-IR cells, RKIP KD CNE2 cells and their corresponding EV-transfected cells were irradiated with 6Gy irradiation, incubated for 72 hours, and stained with Hoechst 33258 and photographed; (right) a histogram shows the apoptotic rate of these cells. (B) (left) RKIP OE CNE2-IR cells, RKIP KD CNE2 cells and their corresponding EV-transfected cells were irradiated with 6Gy irradiation, incubated for 72 hours, subjected to analysis of apoptosis using flow cytometry, and a representative result of cell apoptosis is showed; (right) a histogram shows the apoptotic rate of these cells. Three experiments were done; Means, SDs, and statistical significance are denoted; *P < 0.01. OE, overexpression; KD, knockdown; EV, empty vector.
