1 Paradoxical effects of the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine on docetaxel-induced toxicity in PC-3 and LNCaP prostate cancer cells. Docetaxel chromobox 8 Homo sapiens
2 PC-3 and LNCaP cells were pre-treated with the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine (5 mM) and then exposed to various concentrations (0-100 muM) of docetaxel. Docetaxel chromobox 8 Homo sapiens
3 Docetaxel produced significant toxicity in PC-3 cells but was not toxic to LNCaP cells. Docetaxel chromobox 8 Homo sapiens
4 Pre-treatment with the autophagy inhibitor, 3-methyladenine (5 mM) significantly protected PC-3 cells against docetaxel-induced cytotoxicity, increased autophagosome formation and apoptosis measured using monodansylcadaverine, annexin V and caspase-3 fluorescence, respectively. Docetaxel chromobox 8 Homo sapiens
