Cycloheximide pretreatment exacerbates cell death induced by prolonged NIM811 treatment. (a) Cycloheximide pretreatment did not improve U251 live cell numbers after 24 h of 10 μM NIM811 incubation. (b) Colony number counts on day 13 indicates that pretreatment with rapamycin significantly increased colony numbers over NIM811 alone treatment (from 0.5 to 5 μM), *P<0.05, whereas, cycloheximide pretreatment substantially decreased colony numbers by 0.5 μM NIM811 incubation, *P<0.05. (c) Microscopic images were obtained on day 13 to demonstrating the morphology of the colony cells. Rapamycin also blocked the vacuolization triggered by NIM811. Scale bar=50 μm
