Figure 5. TIMP and MMP expression in MCF-7, MCF-7TAM and MDA-MB-231 cells.

Figure 5

(A,B) Western blot for TIMPs and MMPs: proteins were isolated after 24-h treatments at the following concentrations: EGCG 25 μg/mL, IIF 15μM in MCF-7 cells or 30 μM in MCF-7TAM and MDA-MB-231 cells and combined treatments of EGCG + IIF at the aforementioned concentrations. TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 (A) and MMP-2 and MMP-9 (B) protein expression were expressed as percentage of treated over control samples (CTR). Each bar represents the mean (± S.D.) of three independent experiments. n.s., not significant. *P<0.05; **P<0.01.
