Relationship between RPL28 variants, tissue type and gene expression. (a) RPL28 rs4806668G > T and linked SNPs are associated with an increased gene expression in transverse colon tissues of healthy individuals from the GTEx cohort. (b) RPL28 expression is higher in primary tumor relative to paired normal colorectal tissues (n = 50 pairs) from the TCGA cohort. (c) RPL28 expression is higher in primary colorectal tumors and liver metastases relative to paired normal colorectal tissues (n = 10 pairs) from the GSE49355 dataset. (d) RPL28 expression is higher in primary colorectal tumors and liver metastases relative to paired normal colorectal tissues (n = 18 pairs) from the GSE50760 dataset. A.U., arbitrary units; FPKM, fragments per kilobase million; N, normal tissue; PT, primary tumor tissue; M, liver metastases. *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001.
