Level of basic transcription factor 3 expression in gastric cancer and tumor cell lines. A: Bar charts represent the mRNA levels of basic transcription factor 3 (BTF3) in gastric tumor and adjacent normal tissue measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR); B: BTF3 mRNA expression data from (A) further classified by gender; C: BTF3 expression pattern among gastric body, gastric antrum and cardia tumors; D: The expression of BTF3 mRNA was detected by quantitative real-time PCR among different cell lines. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) was used as the reference gene. Black bars represent tumors and gray bars normal tissues. The difference in BTF3 expression, ^aP < 0.05, ^bP < 0.01 between groups was assessed by unpaired t test and considered significantly different.
