Astaxanthin hampers C666-1 cell migration and invasion and suppresses the activation of PI3K/AKT and NF-κB pathways. A-B. Transwell and wound healing assays were performed to measure the number of invaded cells and the migration of C666-1 cells after astaxanthin treatment. C. The protein levels of factors involved in PI3K/AKT pathway (p-AKT, AKT) and NF-κB pathway (p-P65, p-IκB, P65, and IκB) were quantified using western blotting. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01
