초록

We have investigated the effect of environmental acidity on the induction of apoptosis caused by heat and carboplatin alone or combined. The degree of apoptosis after heating at 42.5$^{\circ}C$ for 1h in pH 6.6 medium was greater than that in pH 7.5 medium in WERI human retinobalstoma cells. When heated in the same pH medium, more apoptosis occurred in the WERI cells than in the Y79 human retinoblastoma cells.(omitted)
