Fig. 1. Anti-cancer effects of fenbendazole in colorectal cancer cells.
(A) The SNU-C5 and 5-FU-resistant SNU-C5 (SNU-C5/5-FUR) cells were mock-treated with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or treated with indicated concentrations of fenbendazole or albendazole for 3 days. The extent of cell viability was determined by MTT assay as described in Methods. Data are presented as mean ± SD. **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001 vs. DMSO. #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, and ###p < 0.001 vs. SNU-C5. (B) The SNU-C5 and SNU-C5/5-FUR cells were mock-treated with DMSO or treated with indicated doses of fenbendazole for indicated days. Cell viability was determined as described in (A). (C) Representative images of SNU-C5 and SNU-C5/5-FUR cells treated with fenbendazole. Scale bar = 200 μm.
