THIO inhibits tumor cell migration and expression of EMT-related genes.
Notes: (A) Transwell analysis for cells (SNU449, LM3, and Huh7) after treatments with THIO. (B) Quantification of migrated cells after transwell assay. *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.005. (C–E) RT-PCR analysis of the EMT-related genes in SNU449 (C), LM3 (D), and Huh7 (E) cells after treatment with THIO for 24 hours.
Abbreviations: RT-PCR, real-time polymerase chain reaction; THIO, thioridazine; EMT, epithelial–mesenchymal transition.
