Functional restoration of WTAPC induces cell death in CRC cells carrying distinct mechanisms of secondary resistance. a–c Parental and resistant-derivatives CRC cells were electroporated with plasmid encoding for WTAPC or an inactive APC version (G97*). Electroporation buffer alone was used as control (mock). After 48 h, cells were stained with Hoechst 3342 /Propidium Iodide (PI) to detect cell death. Representative images of single 96-wells are shown for each condition. d–f Relative quantification of Hoechst/PI positive cells was made using ImageJ software and normalised against mock cells. Results represent means ± SD of three independent wells
