A qRT-PCR quantification of TINCR RNA expression in MMC70 and WM902B cell lines, independently infected with two shRNA targeting TINCR expression (shTINCR-1 and -2). Cells transduced with shScamble (shSCR) were used as control. TINCR RNA levels relative to L32P housekeeping gene and control (mean±sd) measured in three independent biological experiments are shown. In both cell lines TINCR knockdown efficiency is more than 70% with the two shRNAs. Statistical analyses were performed using Student t -test (**: p<0.01).
