DEX-pretreated cells are protected despite three weeks incubation with gemcitabine in vitro . AsPC1 cells were left untreated (CO) or were treated with 0.1 μM DEX (DEX), 25 μM GEM (GEM), or both together (DEX/GEM). One, two and three weeks later the amount of viable cells was determined by trypan blue exclusion and cells were photographed after two weeks of incubation. Experiments were performed three times with identical outcome.
