Figure 7From: Involvement of CD147 in overexpression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and enhancement of invasive potential of PMA-differentiated THP-1Inhibitory effects of AP-9 on invasive potential of undifferentiated and differentiated THP-1 cells to Matrigel. Cells were suspended in serum-free medium and seeded into the matrigel (5 ug/ml)-coated wells. After the incubation for 24 h at 37°C, the number of invaded cells was determined using a colorimetric crystal violet assay. Values are the means ± SE (n = 3~4).Back to article page
