Established BxPC-M8 cell line demonstrates different morphology but a similar growth pattern compared with BxPC-3. (A) Schematic representation of the establishment of BxPC-M8 cells from the parent cell line BxPC-3. (B) Images of BxPC-3 and BxPC-M8 stained with Giemsa (magnification, x200); epithelial-mesenchymal transition phenotype with the green arrows. (C and D) Growth curve indicated a similar growth rate between the two cell lines. (E and F) Sensitivity to gemcitabine revealed no significant difference between BxPC-3 and BxPC-M8 cells as demonstrated by the IC50 value. n.s., not significant; IC50, half-maximal inhibitory concentration.
