NBAT1 is decreased in both OS cell lines and OS tissues. A. The NBAT1 expression in 60 pairs of OS tissues (C) and adjacent noncancerous bone tissues (NC) was measured using RT-PCR. B. Kaplan-Meier survival curve and log-rank test were used to evaluate the association of NBAT1 expression with overall survival rate. Patients were segregated into NBAT1-low and NBAT1-high group as the median of NBAT1 expression in OS tissues. C. The NBAT1 expression in five OS cell lines (KHOS, 143b, LM7, U2OS and MG-63) and normal osteoblast cells (Nhost) was detected by RT-PCR. The expression of NBAT1 in Nhost. *p<0.05.
