Fig. 5: Mesenchymal stem cell co-culture increases migration ability, inhibited by Capsanthin.

A Co-culturing mesenchymal stem cells (3A6) with MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells significantly increases the migration ability of 3A6 cells. Capsanthin treatment (10 μM) effectively inhibits this enhanced migration at 24 h. Student’s t-test (n = 3). B Co-culturing 3A6 cells with the brain metastatic breast cancer cell line 231Br increases the migration of 3A6 cells, which is significantly reduced by Capsanthin treatment (10 μM) at 24 h. Student’s t-test (n = 3). (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01).
