Increased Lnc-THOR expression in NSCLC. RNA was extracted from a total of 10 pairs human NSCLC tumor tissues (“T”) and surrounding normal lung tissues (“N”) (A), the established/primary human NSCLC cells (B), and primary human lung epithelial cells [“pEpi”, (B)], Lnc-THOR expression was tested by qRT-PCR assays, with its expression normalized to that of human testis tissues (A, B). The proposed signaling cartoon of this study (C). Data were presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD, n=5). *P < 0.05 vs. “N” tissues or “pEpi” cells. “N. S.” stands for non-statistical difference (A). The experiments were repeated three times, with similar results obtained.
