The upregulation of LINC01354 in the clinical CRC samples and cell lines. a qRT-PCR analysis of the expression levels of LINC01354 in 88 paired CRC tissues and the corresponding adjacent normal tissues. b LINC01354 expression level was analysed in 88 CRC samples and expressed as log₂ fold change (cancer/normal). c The expression levels of LINC01354 in tissues with or without metastasis were accessed by qRT-PCR. d LINC01354 expression in different TNM stages of CRC was evaluated by qRT-PCR. e Kaplan-Meier analysis and log-rank test were employed to estimate the relation between LINC01354 expression and overall survival of CRC patients. f qRT-PCR results of LINC01354 expression in normal colorectal epithelium cell line FHC and five CRC cell lines (LoVo, HT29, SW620, SW480, and HCT116), of which LoVo cells exhibited the highest LINC01354 expression and HCT116 cells showed the lowest LINC01354 levels. All of the cell lines were analyzed from data of three independent experiments. ^*p < 0.05, ^**p < 0.01, and ^***p < 0.001 vs. control group
