Figure 1

miR-218 is commonly downregulated in primary colorectal cancer tissues and colon cancer cell lines. (A) Levels of miR-218 in 46 primary colorectal tumors compared with their adjacent normal tissues. The miR-218 level is normalized to RNU6B, and the P value indicated a significant difference in miR-218 level between paired samples determined by the Wilcoxon matched pair test. (B) The expression level of miR-218 in five colon cancer cell lines and normal colon tissues (n = 5) by quantitative RT-PCR with RNU6B as an internal control.
