From: Novel HDAC inhibitor MAKV-8 and imatinib synergistically kill chronic myeloid leukemia cells via inhibition of BCR-ABL/MYC-signaling: effect on imatinib resistance and stem cells

Fig. 10

MAKV-8 combined with imatinib induces synergistic anti-cancer activity in imatinib-sensitive and -resistant CML cells. CML cells were treated with the indicated concentrations of imatinib alone or in combination with MAKV-8. (a) Nuclear morphology (upper panel) and cleavage of caspase 3 and PARP-1 (lower panel) were studied in KBM-5 and MEG-01 cells treated for 48 and 24h, respectively. (b) Nuclear morphology (upper panel) and PARP-1 cleavage (lower panel) were evaluated in KBM-5R cells treated for 48 and 24h, respectively. Caspase and PARP-1 cleavages were assessed by western blot using β-actin as the loading control. Cisplatin was used as a positive control. Blots are representative of three independent experiments. SAHA was used as a reference HDACi
