From: Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) is involved in the TNF-α-induced fusion of human M13SV1-Cre breast epithelial cells and human MDA-MB-435-pFDR1 cancer cells

The co-administration of minocycline, SB-3CT and the ICAM1 blocking antibody, yielded different results. No additive inhibitory effect of minocycline and SB-3CT regarding the TNF-α-induced fusion of M13SV1-Cre and MDA-MB-435-pFDR1 cells was observed. In contrast, the incubation of cells in the presence of minocycline, ICAM1 blocking antibody and TNF-α yielded a significantly increased fusion rate. The data shown are the mean ± SD of at least three independent experiments. Statistical analysis: ANOVA F-test and Scheffé post-hoc test: * = p < 0.05; ** = p < 0.01; *** = p < 0.001
