The results of the cell proliferation assay and invasion assays. The colon carcinoma cells were incubated for 24 h with or without recombinant human IL-23 (10 μg/ml) in the two assays. (A) In the cell proliferation assay, the OD450 value was measured, and the mean of the values without IL-23 was defined as 100%. The data are the means ± SD, n=7. (B) In the invasion assay, the number of invaded cells was counted and the mean of the numbers was defined as 100%. The data are the means ± SD, n=6. ^*p<0.05.
