SVIL and bladder transitional cell carcinoma: The results showed that SVIL was significantly downregulated in BLCA tissues (p < 0.001, Fig. 1B), and in addition, we analyzed the SVIL expression levels in 19 groups of bladder cancers and their matched adjacent normal tissues, which showed lower expression in BLCA tissues compared to normal tissues (p < 0.001, Fig. 1C).
