aCell viability tests shown on this table were done 24 hours after application of 5FC. "-5FC" means "no 5FC was added", "+FC" marks experiments with the addition of 5FC to the medium. "-Transf.", "no-RCD", "mNUS-RCD" and "CMV-RCD" mean "no transfection", "transfection with no-RCD construct", "transfection with mNUS-RCD" and "transfection with CMV-RCD", accordingly.

bPropidium iodide tests were done at least in quadruplicates. The data represent integral proportion of necrotic and apoptotic cells.

cAnnexin V assay was performed for all the experiments with the addition of 5FC to the medium. Tests were done in triplicates. The data represent integral proportion of necrotic and apoptotic cells.
