Figure 1. Relative EWSAT1 expression in NPC tissues and cell lines, and its clinical significance. (A) Relative expression of EWSAT1 expression in NPC tissues (n = 108) and in paired adjacent normal tissues (n = 108). N represented Normal adjacent nasopharyngeal tissues, and T represented nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues. EWSAT1 expression was examined by qPCR and normalized to GAPDH expression. (shown as ΔCT). (B) Relative expression of EWSAT1 expression in NPC cell lines and normal NP epidermal cell. (C) Relative expression of EWSAT1 expression in NPC tissues (n = 108) and in paired adjacent normal tissues (n = 108). EWSAT1 expression was examined by qPCR and normalized to GAPDH expression. (shown as ΔCT). (D) The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated that EWSAT1 high expression (red line, n=76) has a worse overall survival compared to the low expression subgroup (green line, n=32). *P < 0.05. Means ± SEM are shown. Statistical analysis was conducted by student t-test.
