Relative CPEB4 expression in GC tissues and its clinical significance.

Notes: (A) Western blot analysis of CPEB4 expression in GC tumor tissues and matched normal tissues. Magnification ×200. (B) Representative IHC images of CPEB4 and ZEB1 in GC tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues. (C) Quantitative evaluation of CPEB4 expression in tumor tissues and corresponding normal tissues in accordance with staining scores. (D) Scatterplots of the average staining scores of CPEB4 expression in patients without or with metastasis. (E) Kaplan–Meier survival curves for GC patients with CPEB4 expression. ^*P<0.05.

Abbreviations: CPEB4, cytoplasmic polyadenylation element-binding protein 4; GC, gastric cancer; IHC, immunohistochemistry.
