Treatment of normal, non-cancerous, animal cells with an agent that depletes polyamines within the cells results in an inhibition of apoptosis when the cells are exposed to an inducer of apoptosis. This inhibition of apoptosis is not observed, or is observed to a lesser extent, in similarly treated cancerous cells. The method of the invention is useful in obtaining preferential killing of cancer cells, as opposed to normal cells, due to anti-cancer therapy.
