Figure 6. IL-6 and IGF-1 do not protect against patupilone. IL-6 and IGF-1 are growth and survival factors for MM cells. Both inhibit dexamethasone-induced apoptosis. MM.1S cells were incubated for 24 hours in the absence (⋄) or presence of IL-6 (100 ng/mL, ▵), IGF-1 (200 ng/mL, □), or patupilone 0, 0.1, 1, or 10 nM. Proliferation was measured by 3H-[dT] uptake (A), and survival was measured by MTS assay (B). Both assays were measured relative to internal controls without patupilone, in the absence or presence of IL-6 or IGF-1. Error bars indicate ± standard deviation of triplicate experiments.
