NDRG2 is a differentiation-specific marker in CRCs. a Immunohistochemistry staining of NDRG2 in human adjacent normal and cancerous colon tissues from CRC patients. b, c NDRG2 expression in human tissues at different stage b or differentiation status c. Student’s t-test was applied for statistical analyses. d, e Kaplan–Meier plots indicate the clinical outcomes for different CRC differentiation status d or NDRG2 expression patterns e by immunohistochemistry staining in CRCs. f-i Silico analysis of 383 primary CRC tissues of the multidimensional data set from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cbioportal data set. f Clinical outcomes for NDRG2 expression pattern were evaluated. g The correlation between the TCGA expression and methylation data for NDRG2 in CRC adenocarcinoma. h, i Clinical outcomes for the gene expression patterns given at the top of each panel. e, f,h, i For NDRG2, CDKN1A and CDKN1B, high expression indicates expression above the mean, calculated across all samples. Conversely, low expression indicates expression below the mean. a-i n indicates the number of patient samples evaluated in each analysis. P-values were calculated using the Mantel–Cox log-rank test. **P < 0.01. ***P<0.001
