Excerpt:
Using the NaviPlate, we examined the response to chemotherapy of four commonly used cancer cell lines: LNCaP, AR mutant lymph-node derived prostate cancer; A549, KRAS mutant/EGFR wt NSCLC; HCT116, KRAS mutant/p53 wt colon cancer; and MDA-MB-231 triple negative breast cancer .First, the lines were exposed to three types of chemotherapy with distinct modes of action: 5-FU (DNA damage), Docetaxel (inhibition of microtubular polymerization) and Flavopiridiol (pan-CDK inhibition). Except for Flavopiridiol in A549 cells, all cell lines were resistant to chemotherapy
