Figure 7. Cry1 promoted CRC growth in vivo.

Figure 7

(A) The expression of Cry1 was markedly increased in the stable cell line Cry1-HCT116 compared with control stable cell line ctrl-HCT116. GAPDH was used as an internal control. (B) Representative images of tumors derived from Cry1-HCT116 or ctrl-HCT116,following subcutaneous xenograft transplants in nude mice (C) Overexpression of Cry1 promoted colorectal cancer growth. Tumor cells were injected subcutaneously into nude mice. Mice were sacrificed after 4 weeks, and the volume of each tumor was measured every 4 days. Bars, ±SEM; *P<0.05, ** p = 0.01.
