Table 1: Cytosensitivity to cisplatin in representative 4000-cell group evaluated by MTT assay. The values presented from three independent experiments, each performed in triplicate. These values stand for IC50 values to cisplatin in each cell group. Data are expressed as mean ± S.D. *p < 0.05 but #p > 0.05 when compared with average IC50s.
