Fig. 4. Combination of apalutamide with radiation does not induce an early apoptotic response.
Analysis of apoptosis markers of 22Rv1, PC3, and DU145 prostate cancer cell lines, exposed to radiation (4 Gy for 22Rv1 and DU147 and 10 Gy for PC3): a typical images of apoptotic cells stained with Annexin (green fluorescence), evident 4 days after exposure to radiation; b quantification of Annexin fluorescence intensity in prostate cancer cells exposed to radiation; c lack of expression of Annexin in prostate cancer cells, 24 h after exposure to radiation and apalutamide; d, e western blot images and quantification of cleaved PARP protein expression, 24 h after exposure of 22Rv1 to radiation, Apalutamide, their combination and docetaxel (used as control).
