Selective and Irreversible Induction of Necroptotic Cell Death in Lung Tumorspheres by Short-Term Exposure to Verapamil in Combination with Sorafenib

VP in combination with SF significantly decreases the viability of cells growing under PPSS or as FTs. (a) Cells growing under PPSS for 8–10 days were incubated with the indicated concentrations of VP and SF alone or in combination for 24 h. Cell viability was measured by the MTT assay. (b) Cells growing as FTs for 14–16 days were incubated with the indicated concentrations of VP and SF alone or in combination for 24 h. Cell viability was measured by the CCK assay. Results (X ± SD) are representative of two independent experiments performed in sextuplicate. indicates (ANOVA).
