DHA decreased the migration and invasion capacity of A549 cells. The application of DHA induced a significant reduction in the migration (Fig. 3 a and b) and invasion (Fig. 3 c and d) of A549 cells relative to that in the control. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 vs. vehicle control. The levels of MMP9, HEF1 and VEGF were reduced significantly by DHA (Fig. 3 e)
