TMEM207 expression increases SAS tongue squamous carcinoma cell growth in vivo and GLUT‐1 protein expression. (A) Enforced TMEM207 expression did not affect cell growth in vitro. SAS cells were cultured on tissue culture dishes in triplicate. Data are expressed as means ± S.D. (n = 3). Measurements of live cells were taken at 24, 48 and 72 hrs. No significant differences in cell growth were found between TMEM207‐expressing and control SAS cells. The experiment was repeated two times using different clones, and consistent results were obtained. (B) Enforced expression of TMEM207 increased the growth of SAS cells in a xenoplant assay. Representative results obtained for transfected clones are shown. Similar results were obtained using different transfected clones. Values are presented as means ± S.D. (n = 3). (C) GLUT‐1 immunoreactivity in the xenoplant assay was significant in TMEM207‐expressing SAS cells but sparse in control cells.
