From: Modulation of monocyte matrix metalloproteinase-2 by breast adenocarcinoma cells
The effects of monocyte cells and CM on the invasive potential of breast adenocarcinoma cells. Graphs showing an increase in the number of (a) MCF-7 and (b) MDA-MB-231 cells that migrated through matrigel-coated membranes in response to monocyte cell CM. The following conditions were used in the lower chamber: 1, serum-free media; 2, 10% FBS in serum-free media; 3, THP-1 cell-conditioned media; 4, (a) 5 × 104 MCF-7 cells, (b) 5 × 104 MDA-MB-231 cells; 5, 5 × 104 THP-1 cells; 6, (a) 10 × 104 MCF-7 cells, (b) 10 × 104 MDA-MB-231 cells; 7, 10 × 104 THP-1 cells. *p < 0.05 compared to condition 2; **p < 0.05 compared to condition 4; ***p < 0.05 compared to condition 6. The values are the means of three experiments and the error bars are the standard error of the mean.
