Figure 2

A logarithmic scale of relative quantity (RQ) of CCAT1 expression in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence. The log RQ of CCAT1 expression is shown for every tissue type: inflamed colonic tissue, normal colon adjacent to the tumor site (Normal Adj.), adenomatous polyps, primary tumor tissue, lymph node metastasis (LN-Mx), liver metastasis (Liver-Mx), and peritoneal metastasis (Peritoneal-Mx). Mean RQ and standard deviation are shown in the lower part of the figure. Mean CCAT1 expression was compared to normal colon. * p < 0.09, ** p = 0.012, ***p = 0.0048, ****p < 0.0001.
