α2δ1+ HGC-27 cells presented more significant invasiveness than α2δ1− HGC-27 cells. Comparison of invasiveness of α2δ1+ and α2δ1− HGC-27 cells using the transwell assays. The purified α2δ1+ and α2δ1− HGC-27 cells were cultured separately in the transwell chambers for 24 hrs. The cells that had migrated through the membrane were stained and counted. α2δ1+ HGC-27 cells displayed more invasiveness than their α2δ1− counterparts. *p<0.05.
