SPR965 inhibited invasion in ovarian cancer cells. SPR965 inhibited cell invasion in the Hey and SKOV3 cells, assessed by transwell assays (A). The Hey and SKOV3 cells were treated with SPR965 for 24 h. VEGF products in the media were assessed by VEGF ELISA assay (B). Western blotting results indicated that SPR965 affected the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers including an increase in Slug in Hey cells and a decrease in Snail in both cell lines (C). SPR965 reduced serum VEGF levels in SPR965-treated KpB mice at the end of treatment (D). Immunohistochemistry results confirmed that SPR965 significantly reduced the expression of VEGF in ovarian tumors of KpB mice (E). *P < 0.05, **P<0.01.
