Quantitative PCR analysis on a CRC cDNA chip (Shanghai Outdo Biotech, Shanghai, China) in 15 pairs of CRC patients’ samples confirmed that NUFIP1 mRNA expression was up-regulated in CRC tissues, compared with matched noncancerous colorectal tissues (Figure 2A; P < 0.05, tumor vs. normal tissue; Supplementary Table S3). This evidence concerns the gene NUFIP1 and neoplasm.
