Inhibitory effects of GXI on cell migration in HepG2 cells. HepG2 cells treated with various doses of GXI for 24 h, and cell migration were tested by wound healing assay. (A) Cells migrating into the scratched area and photographed by inverted microscope in 100×. (B) Calculated as pixel2 of scratch area. Data represent mean ± SD. ** p < 0.01 compared with control. (C) Levels of MMP-7, MMP-9, and β-Actin detected by Western blotting. (D) Fold change of Western blotting. Data represent mean ± SD. ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 compared with control.
