Bazedoxifene, SC144 and evista inhibit the colony forming ability in human pancreatic cancer cells. HPAC, Capan-1, BxPC-3 and MIA PaCa-2 cells were treated with bazedoxifene (0, 10 and 15 μM), SC144 (0, 10 and 15 μM) or evista (0, 10 and 15 μM) for 16 hours, then cells were harvested and reseeded on 6-cm plates with a drug-free medium for an additional incubation of 2 weeks. Colonies were fixed with methanol and stained with crystal violet dye (0.1% w/v). B: bazedoxifene.
