Figure 2.
The effect of NaA-silane-PEG and NaA-silane-PEG-D2B on the proportion of viable cells (annexin V-negative and propidium iodide-negative cells), early apoptotic cells (annexin V-positive cells and propidium iodide-negative cells) and late apoptotic/necrotic cells (annexin V-positive and propidium iodide-positive cells). LNCaP C4-2 cells (A), DU-145 cells (B), RWPE-1 cells (C) and HPrEC cells (D) were exposed to 50 mcg mL−1 of NaA-silane-PEG or NaA-silane-PEG-D2B for 96 h. Data are expressed as the mean ± standard deviation (SD) from three independent experiments. * p < 0.05 versus control group.
