lncRNA TPT1-AS1 was significantly up-regulated in CC and correlates with CC progression. a The expression level of TPT1-AS1 was detected in human CC tissues and matched adjacent normal tissues by qRT-PCR (n = 40). b Expression of TPT1-AS1 was increased in FIGO stage II relative to FIGO stage I (n = 20). c The expression of TPT1-AS1 in lymph node metastasis was significantly increased compared to that without lymph node metastasis (n = 8). d TPT1-AS1 expression in cervical cancer cell lines and an immortalized cervical epithelial cell line (NC104). e Kaplan-Meier curve of overall survival rate of cervical cancer patients with high TPT1-AS1 levels (n = 59) and low TPT1-AS1 levels (n = 56). *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
