a, b Atorvastatin induced senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity in HepG2 and Hep3B cells. c, d Atorvastatin treatment of p53-wild-type HepG2 and p53-null Hep3B cells induced p21 and p27 expression but did not alter the expression of p14ARF or p16INK4a. HepG2 and Hep3B cells were treated with atorvastatin (0, 5, 10, or 20 μg/ml) for 72 h and then stained for SA-β-gal (a, b) and subjected to immunoblotting (c, d).
