From: Anti-tumor activity of olaparib, a poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor, in cultured endometrial carcinoma cells

Figure 2

Status of PTEN in endometrial cancer cells is irrelevant to the response to olaparib. (A) (B) Each cell line was treated with 5 concentrations of olaparib, and the cell proliferation was evaluated by a clonogenic assay. Cells were cultured for 14–21 d. Cells were continuously exposed to olaparib with media during the incubation. All experiments were repeated 3 times, and each value is shown as the mean of 3 experiments ± SD. PTEN mutant cells (n = 12) are shown in (A: 6 cells in upper left and the other 6 in lower left), and wild-type cells (n = 4) are shown in (B). (C) Clonogenic assay comparing HEC-6-PTEN + cells with parental HEC-6 cells. SF50 values were 1,800 nM in both cell lines.
