Description
LP-1 cells were exposed to stepwise increasing concentrations of carfilzomib over a period of 18 weeks: cells adapted to growth in 4 nM carfilzomib by 4 weeks, in 6 nM in another 6 weeks and in 12 nM after a further 8 weeks. The resulting cell culture, denoted LP-1/Cfz, retained resistance to carfilzomib even when tested after removal of selective pressure for approximately 8 weeks.
