Effects of ALT-C on the MMP-9 and MMP-2 contents in the conditioned media from (a) MDA-MB-231, (b) human fibroblasts, and (c) HMEC-1 cells. MMP content was detected by band densitometry in the conditioned media (peak area) after wounding and incubation with ALT-C for 24 h. MMP-2 and MMP-9 contents were determined by band densitometry. The assay was performed in triplicate with two independent assays (n = 2). * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001 compared to control (without ALT-C)
