Elevated LGR5 expression protects cervical cancer cells to resist cisplatin. (a) Cell viability of the LGR5-overexpressing and LGR5-knockdown cervical cancer cells was measured using an MTT assay after treatment with different concentrations of cisplatin for 24 h. (b) Cell viability of the LGR5-overexpressing and LGR5-knockdown cervical cancer cells was measured using an MTT assay after treatment with a constant dose of cisplatin for 0, 24, 48 or 72 h. Data represent mean±S.D. of triplicate experiments. (c) The percentage of LGR5+ cells in the cervical cancer cell lines was analyzed by flow cytometry after exposure to 3 μg/ml cisplatin for 2 days and following culture in ordinary culture medium for 2 weeks. *P<0.05; **P<0.01; ***P<0.001
