Safranal inhibited HUVECs migration and tube formation. (A) HUVECs were grown into full confluence in six-well plate, then cells were wounded with pipette. Further treated with 30 ng/ml rhVEGF as well as various concentrations of safranal. (B) The area of the wound was measured at 0 hr, 8 hrs and12 hrs. (C) HUVECs incubated with different concentrations of safranal were seeded into 96-well plate pre-coated with Matrigel. After 6 to 8 hrs, tubular structures were photographed, and the number of the tubes was quantified (D, E). Statistical analysis was carried out in all experiments by student’s t-test using GraphPad Prism software and p < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. *p < 0.05 and ***p < 0.001.
