FUR inhibition on colony formation in lung cancer cells. (a) Cells were treated with various concentrations of FUR for 24 h, after which morphological changes were observed using an AxioCam HRC CCD phase contrast microscope. Bar: 20 μm. (b) Cells were treated with various concentrations of FUR for 24 h. After treatment, cells were suspended and reseeded into 6-well plates at a density of 200 cells per well (A549) or 1000 cells per well (95-D) and then fixed and stained with 4% PFA and crystal violet after one week. The representative images of colony formation assay were obtained. Bar: 2 mm.
