Expression of CASC2 in the human pancreatic cancer cell lines and normal pancreatic HPDE6-C7 cells was detected by qRT-PCR. **P£¿<£¿0.01 vs. HPDE6-C7. b¨Cd CASC2 sequences were ligated into the pEX-2 vector (pEX-CASC2). An empty pEX-2 vector was used as a negative control (pEX). Pancreatic carcinoma cells were transfected with the CASC2-expressing vector (pEX-CASC2) or the corresponding negative control (pEX) for 48 h. The cells without transfection were used as a control (CT). b Expression of CASC2 in the cells. c Cell migration and d invasion were assessed by the transwell assay (n£¿=£¿3; 10 random fields were counted). ***P£¿<£¿0.001.
