Figure 3. The apoptotic commitment of U87MG after treatment with CBD (10-20 μM), ATMi (2 μM) and γ-irradiation (10 Gy), alone or in combinations.

Figure 3

(A and B) Annexin-V-FITC and PI staining for determination of early apoptotic (EA), late apoptotic (LA) and secondary-necrotic (SN) GBM cells after indicated treatment was followed by the flow cytometry. Typical experiment (A) and pooled results of four independent experiments (B) using U87MG cells 24-48 h after indicated treatments are shown. Percentage of (dying + dead cells) included early apoptotic (EA), late apoptotic (LA) and secondary necrotic cells (SN). Error bars represent means ± S.D. (p < 0.05, Student's t-test). The stars and the arrows indicate significant differences between indicated cells after specified treatment. (C) The images of control and irradiated U87MG after immunostaining with α-Tubulin and DAPI followed by confocal microscopy are shown. (D and E) Western blot analysis of apoptotic marker proteins 24 h and 48 h after indicated treatments of U87MG cells.
