Figure 1From: Interaction of translationally controlled tumor protein with Apaf-1 is involved in the development of chemoresistance in HeLa cells TCTP inhibits anticancer drug-induced cell death and cleavage of EGFR and PLC-γ in HeLa cells. (A) TCTP-induced inhibition of cytotoxic drug-induced cell death. AdNull- and adTCTP-infected HeLa cells (MOI, 10) were incubated with 20 μM etoposide or 0.1 μM taxol and then DNA fragmentation was analyzed using PI staining and FACS as described in Materials and Methods. (B) TCTP-induced inhibition of cytotoxic drug-induced EGFR and PLC-γ fragmentation. After treatment of 20 μM etoposide or 0.1 μM taxol, adGFP (G)- and adTCTP-GFP (T)-infected HeLa cell (MOI, 10) extracts were blotted with anti-EGFR, -PLC- γ, and -GFP antibodies.Back to article page
