NAP1L5 inhibits tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. (A–C) Xenografted tumors were produced by injection of MHCC97H cells overexpressing NAP1L5 (experimental group) or carrying control vector (control group). The growth of the transplanted tumor was measured by volume and weight. (D) HE, IHC, Ki-67 and TUNEL staining were performed on the transplanted tumor. (E) The lung metastasis model was established by injecting MHCC97H cells overexpressing NAP1L5 (experimental group) or control vector (control group) through the tail vein. (F, G)The number of metastatic foci in lung tissue was observed, and HE staining was performed on lung tissue. ^*p < 0.05; ^**p < 0.01; ^***p < 0.001.
