KB-4.0-HTI cells with an α-tubulin mutation and KB-3-1 wild-type controls, A549.EpoB40 cells with a β-tubulin mutation and the A549 wild-type controls, and CEM VBL cells overexpressing P-glycoprotein and CEM wild-type controls were treated with increasing concentrations of flubendazole for 72 hours. Data represent IC50 values, as measured by the MTS assay.
