AIMP2-DX2 Promotes the Proliferation, Migration, and Invasion of Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma Cells

Figure 1

AIMP2-DX2 is upregulated in NPC specimens and correlated with poor diagnosis. (a) Schematic diagram of AIMP2 and AIMP2-DX2 transcripts (AIMP2-F, full-length AIMP2) [16]; (b) qPCR detecting the mRNA level change of AIMP2 and AIMP2-DX2 in NPC patients. Normal: normal nasopharyngeal tissue; NPC: nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissue. denotes ; ns indicates no difference. (c) Immunohistochemical staining of AIMP2-DX2 expression in normal nasopharyngeal tissues and in NPC specimens. Enlarged local images were shown in below panel. ROC curve (d) and Kaplan–Meier survival curves (e) showed the relationship between expression of AIMP2-DX2 and survival.
