a Tumor growth curves of shCtrl and sh1503 HK1 cells in xenograft tumor growth model. b Representative image of xenograft tumors. c Tumor weight was smaller in the sh1503 group than in the shCtrl group. d Representative image of primary tumor in foot pads and metastatic inguinal lymph nodes in the inguinal lymph node metastasis model. e Representative image of the inguinal lymph node. f Inguinal lymph node volume was smaller in the sh1503 group. g H&E staining of foot pad primary tumors. h Pan-cytokeratin staining for inguinal lymph nodes as tested by IHC assay. i The metastatic ratio of inguinal lymph nodes was smaller in the sh1503 group. j Representative images of metastatic nodules on the lungs in the lung metastatic colonization model. k The number of metastatic nodule in lungs was lower in the sh1503 group. l H&E staining showed that the metastatic nodules were fewer and smaller in the sh1503 group. Data are presented as the mean ± SD; p values were calculated with Student’s t test; *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
