(A) Concentration of decorin in CRL4003 cell culture medium by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The concentration of decorin decreased when CaSki culture medium was added but not when MMP inhibitor was added. (B) Pearson's correlation coefficient showed a strong correlation between the concentration of decorin and the amount of CaSki cultured medium (r=−0.84, P<0.05). This finding indicates that MMP9 released from CaSki cells destroys decorin released from CRL4003 cells. MMP, matrix metalloproteinase.
