Inhibition of EGF-mediated proliferation by rhTIMP-2-6XHis preincubation. MTT assays determed the % max EGF proliferation as described in Materials and Experimental Details (n = 3; mean ± standard error of the mean). Proliferation data were plotted for (A) A549 NSCLC lung cancer cell lines and (B) JygMC(A) triple negative breast cancer cells in gelatin-coated cell culture plates. Proliferation was measured at optimal times following EGF stimulation, 48 and 72 h post-EGF stimulation for A549 and JygMC(A) cells, respectively.
