Effect of ultrasound-activated TiO2 nanosticks with TMZ on glioblastoma (GBM). a Bright-field micrographs showing the anticancer effect of ultrasound-activated TiO2 nanosticks with TMZ on TMZ-resistant GBM cells. The back arrowhead indicated the apoptotic cells’ round morphology after treatment. b MTT assay for cell viability of TMZ-resistant GBM cells after sonication. The viability % is with reference to untreated control. ** shows a highly significant difference between the two groups. c Western blot data showing apoptosis effect of TiO2 nanosticks loaded with TMZ on TMZ-resistant GBM cells after sonication. d Annexin-V PI assay apoptosis data of U251–TMZ resistant cells after treatment with TiO2 nanosticks loaded with TMZ and ultrasound activated.
