  1. HT 1376 bladder carcinoma cells were pre-incubated for 30 min with 1 μM CsA, after which 3 μg/mL docetaxel was added. After a 1-h treatment, both drugs were washed out and cells were further cultured. Data are percentages of cells with the indicated staining characteristics. For details, see the Methods section.
  2. JC-1 = cells undergoing Δψm transition; E = early apoptosis, i.e. AnnV+/PI-; L = late apoptosis, i.e. AnnV+/PI+; N = necrosis, i.e. AnnV-/PI+
