PCBP1 protein expression is universally suppressed in thyroid cancer patients, irrespective of miR-490-3p expression. A: Steady state expression of miR-490-3p in thyroid cancer and adjacent normal tissues from twenty different patients, ten with high and ten with low PCBP1 mRNA expression. Data is represented as mean ± standard deviation. B: Relative PCBP1 protein expression, normalized to adjacent control tissue, in 20 thyroid cancer tissue specimens. Data is represented as mean ± standard deviation.
