NCOA5 and colorectal carcinoma: To further assess whether the effect of NCOA5 on in vitro growth of CRC cells could be reproduced in vivo, we monitored and compared human CRC s.c. xenografted tumor growth of SW620-shNCOA5 3# vs SW620-shNTC, and SW480-LV-NCOA5 vs SW480-LV in athymic BALB/c nude mice.
