“…To identify whether ZINC000085537017 or quercetin affected carboplatin sensitization in OV, first, carboplatin-resistant cell lines (A2780-carboplatin and SKOV3-carboplatin) were assayed for cell viability after treatment with a concentration gradient of ZINC000085537017 or quercetin (0, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, 100 μM) for 24 h. As shown in Figures S3A–B and S3C–D , 0.01–1.00 μM ZINC000085537017 and 0.01–10.0 μM quercetin did not significantly inhibit cell growth, but 10–100 μM ZINC000085537017 and 100 μM quercetin significantly reduced cell viability ( p < 0.05). Then, based on previous research ( 22 , 23 ), we selected 1 μM ZINC000085537017 and 10 μM quercetin for subsequent studies. Second, we calculated the IC 50 values for carboplatin treatment for 48 h. The IC 50 values of A2780, A2780-carboplatin, SKOV3, and SKOV3-carboplatin were 19.03 μM (7.066 μg/mL), 91.28 μM (33.89 μg/mL), 15.18 μM (5.635 μg/mL), and 68.96 μM (25.6 μg/mL), respectively.…”
