Sensitivity of non-small cell lung cancer cell lines to TNF-α treatment. (A) H292, (B) H1975, (C) H460, and (D) H1299 cell lines were treated with 20, 40, or 80 ng/ml TNF-α and cell viability was assessed. The cell viability was normalized to the control group at 0 h. An increased level of cleaved caspase-3 was observed in (E) H460 and (F) H1299 cells following TNF-α treatment. *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001 and ****P<0.0001 vs. Ctrl. Ctrl, control; NSCLC, non-small cell lung cancer; TNF, tumor necrosis factor; OD, optical density.
