Silencing miR-21 Sensitizes Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer A549 Cells to Ionizing Radiation through Inhibition of PI3K/Akt

Figure 4

Apoptosis of NSCLC A549 cells after ionizing radiation (IR). Apoptosis in anti-miR-21- (or anti-miR-NC-) transfected A549 cells combined with (or without) IR (8.0 Gy) was detected through annexin V-FITC/PI staining by flow cytometric analysis. The data represent the means ± SD of three separate experiments. Student’s -test was used to analyze the statistics (* ).
