Expression of TMEM119 in gastric cancer tissues. (A) An increase of TMEM119 mRNA expression in 249 gastric cancer tissues compared with 33 ordinary gastric tissues from the TCGA database. (B) TMEM119 protein expression was increased in four gastric cancer tissues as compared to the corresponding normal gastric tissues, as indicated in the western blot analysis. (C) Immunohistochemical analysis reveals tumor upregulation (magnification, ×400). (D) TMEM119 mRNA expression was higher in all the gastric cancer cell lines compared to GES-1 cells, with the highest expression detected in SGC-7901 cells. Low power (×200). Scale bars,100 µm. **P<0.01. TMEM119, transmembrane protein 119; TCGA, The Cancer Genome Atlas.
