Effects of general anesthetics (GAs) on breast cancer cell migration. a Representative images of the Transwell Migration Assay used to determine the invasiveness of estrogen receptor-positive (MCF 7) and negative breast cancer cell lines (MDA-MB-436). b MDA-MB-436 exhibits greater migration potential thanMCF7. Exposure to equipotent sevoflurane (2%) and propofol (2 μM) did not affect migration in either breast cancer cells. All data are expressed as means ± SD from at least repeats of 3 separate experiments in duplicate or triplicate wells, and analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey multiple comparison tests
