Effect of statin and hemin on proliferation of HMOX-silenced pancreatic cancer cells. Both HMOX1 and HMOX2 were silenced with esiRNA in a) PA-TU-8902, b) Mia-PaCa-2, and c) BXpC-3 pancreatic cancer cells, and the effect of cerivastatin (12 μM) and hemin (30 μM) on cell proliferation was measured by CellTiter-Glo test after 48 h of treatment. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.0001 vs. control cells, #p < 0.01 vs. esiRNA control cells. CON, control cells; CER, cerivastatin
