Resveratrol suppresses the pancreatic cancer cell invasion and epithelial–mesenchymal transition induced by CM from PSCs. CM were from PSCs activated by hypoxia. (A, B) Panc-1 or Mia Paca-2 cells were cultured under normoxic conditions with CM from PSCs in the presence or absence of 50 μM resveratrol or si-HIF-1α for 24 h. The cells were seeded into a Matrigel-coated invasion chamber under normoxic conditions for 24 h. The invaded cells were quantified by counting the number of cells at a 200× magnification in 10 random fields. (C) Subconfluent Panc-1 cells were treated under normoxic conditions with CM from PSCs treated with or without 50 μM resveratrol or si-HIF-1α for 24 h. Then, the cells were lysed, and the N-cadherin, vimentin, and E-cadherin expression levels in the Panc-1 cells were analyzed by western blotting. #P < 0.05; ##P < 0.01 comparing the CM group with the control group. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01 comparing the CM+RSV or CM+si-HIF-1α group with the CM group. All data represent at least three independent experiments. CM: conditioned medium; HIF-1α: hypoxia-inducible factor 1; PSC: pancreatic stellate cell; RSV: resveratrol.
