Effects of bile on the growth of QBC939 with or with-out celecoxib
Group | n | OD490 | P | +CE OD490 | P |
A | 20 | 0.59 ± 0.17 | bP = 0.002, dP = 0.001 | 0.29 ± 0.09 | bP = 0.089, dP = 0.190 |
B | 10 | 0.47 ± 0.14 | bP = 0.398 | 0.26 ± 0.07 | bP = 0.052 |
C | 5 | 0.43 ± 0.10 | 0.24 ± 0.09 |
QBC939 cells were incubated in 1% CCC bile (A), 1% normal bile (B) or 1% PBS (C) with or without 20 µM celecoxib (+CE), and the cells density (OD490nm) was measured by using MTT assay. Data were expressed as -x ± s, b vs C, d vs B.
