Just to add my two cents (I add it here since I can't see the original
poster's reply).
Plotting f[-x] and placing the ticks' tags for n at -n can spare the
conversion of every point of the graph:

    f[x_]:=x^3;
    Plot[ f[-x], {x, -10, 10},
        Ticks -> {Table[{-n, n}, {n, 0, 10}], Automatic}
    ];

Of course this works only if the ticks are to be supplied directly.
Andrzej's method is more general since the conversion includes every part of
the graph.

Best regards,
Peltio
