CILP2 was upregulated in colorectal cancer samples. a, b The line chart and histogram of CILP2 gene expression in 50 paired tumor and matched adjacent normal tissue samples in TCGA cohort. FC, fold change. c Scatter plot of CILP2 expression in all normal and cancer samples in TCGA cohort. ***P < 0.001. d Positive or negative expression of CILP2 protein in matched adjacent normal tissues (normal) or cancer tissues in the TMA cohort. **P = 0.001. e Representative image of normal tissue immunohistochemical staining in the TMA cohort.
