Platelet-induced cell invasion is reversed by resminostat in combination with sorafenib. (A) Effect of resminostat/sorafenib drug combination on platelet-induced cell invasion. PLC/PRF/5 cell invasion assay with 2.5 × 107 PLTs/well (100 × 103 PLTs/mm3) and without platelets. 1 µM resminostat and 2.5 µM sorafenib were used in mono- and combination treatments, 0.1% DMSO was used as the vehicle control. Representative microscopic images of transwells. (B) Quantification of cell invasion (right). The data are presented as mean ± SD (n = 3). One-way ANOVA with multiple comparison testing (Tukey) was performed. Multiplicity adjusted p-values with 95% confidence interval was applied. Adjusted p-values comparing vehicle control without vs. with platelets and compound treatments vs. vehicle control in the presence of platelets are presented in the figure. The stars indicate significant p-values, whereas ns indicates not significant. (C,D) Invasion assay with SNU-475 cells as described in (A) and (B). 2.5 µM resminostat and 5 µM sorafenib were used in mono- and combination treatments.
