Figure 3 Effect of nimesulide on the motility (A) and invasiveness (B) of the esophageal squamous carcinoma cell line TE-13 induced by nicotine treatment.
Numbers of TE-13 cells which migrated through the polycarbonate (A) or matrigel (B) membrane of Transwell® to the lower surface of the membrane were counted under a light microscope (× 400). Data are expressed as mean ± SE. bP < 0.01 vs the control group; dP < 0.01 vs the nicotine 200 &mgr;g/mL group.
