To determine the expression profile of TRIP13 in CRC, we analyzed multiple CRC data sets available from Oncomine, and TRIP13 was found to be upregulated in tumor tissue compared with normal tissue in these data sets (Fig. 1a from left to right: Graudens Colon9, Hong colorectal10, Skrzypczak colorectal211, Skrzypczak colorectal11, Sabates Bellver colon12, Gaedcke colorectal13, Ki colon14). This evidence concerns the gene TRIP13 and colorectal carcinoma.
