Bupivacaine treatment inhibited cell migration of both ovarian cancer (SKOV-3) and prostate cancer (PC-3) cells.
Scratched monolayer cells were treated with 1 mM bupivacaine for 24 h. Degree of wound healing was calculated as (initial wound area − remaining wound area)/initial wound area. (A) Bupivacaine suppressed wound closure in SKOV-3 cells. (B) Bupivacaine suppressed wound closure in PC-3 cells. All values are presented as mean ± SD (n = 4); ***P < 0.001.
