D Upper panel: in vivo growth of tumors derived from intradermal injection of shTINCR-2 or shSCR WM902B cells in NSG mice. 600,000 WM902B cells per mouse were inoculated. Tumor volumes (mean±sd) were measured 8 weeks after transplantation. Results from two independent experiments (four animals per group) are shown. Statistical analysis between control and TINCR-silenced groups was performed using the Student t -test (**=p<0.01). Lower panel: qRT-PCR analysis of TINCR RNA expression in tumors derived from in vivo transplant of shSCR and shTINCR WM902B cells (8 weeks after injection). TINCR RNA levels relative to L32P housekeeping gene and control (mean±sd) from four biological replicates (animals) from both experiments are shown.
