DEX inhibits the expression of cleaved caspase-3 protein. SKOV-3 and HO-8910 cells were treated with PTX (50 nM) for 24 h with or without DEX pre-treatment (0.1 μM). Then, cells were harvested for detection of cleaved caspase-3 protein by western blot analysis. β-actin was also detected as a loading control. A. Western blot product of cleaved caspase-3 protein. B. Relative expression of cleaved caspase-3 protein. *: p < 0.01 vs. control; *#: p < 0.01 vs. PTX-treated cells. PTX: paclitaxel; DEX: dexamethasone.
