Fig. 3

Flow cytometric analysis after incubation with masitinib (0–8 μM) for 72 h as representative profiles of annexin-V-FITC/PI staining of CMT-U27 cells and CMT-U309 cells. The lower left quadrant of the histogram shows viable cells (unstained by either fluorochrome) and the lower right one represents early apoptotic (annexin-V-positive) cells, indicating the translocation of phosphatidylserine to the external cell surface. The upper right quadrant represents late apoptotic (annexin-V- and PI-positive) cells, and the upper left one shows necrotic (PI-positive) cells. The numbers represent the mean percentage of cells (%) ± standard error
