Figure 1From: Autophagy contributes to apoptosis in A20 and EL4 lymphoma cells treated with fluvastatinFluvastatin induced apoptosis in lymphoma cells. Lymphoma cells were incubated with fluvastatin (0–10 μM) for 24 h. Apoptosis of lymphoma cells was analyzed by using annexin V (AV)-FITC/PI double staining and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Representative images from A20 cells (A) and EL4 cells (C) were shown (bar = 75 μm). Apoptosis levels were evaluated by the ratio of apoptotic cells (AV-FITV alone positive and AV-FITC/PI double positive cells) and total cells for A20 cells (B) and EL4 cells (D). Data are presented as mean ± SEM of three separate experiments, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 versus resting cells.Back to article page
