High levels of early and late apoptosis were detected after squamocin treatment. Cells were incubated with 15, 30, and 60 μM squamocin for 24 h. Apoptotic cells were determined by a PI and annexin V double-staining assay and analysis by flow cytometry. Annexin V^-/PI^-, annexin V⁺/PI^- and annexin V⁺/PI⁺ cells were respectively considered to be viable, early-apoptotic, and late-apoptotic cells. Cells without squamocin treatment served as a control. (A) GBM841 cells. (B) Huh-7 cells. (C) SW620 cells. Data are the mean of three independent experiments. * p < 0.05, compared to the control.
