Tumor necrosis factor-α-induced protein-8 like-2 (TIPE2) upregulates p27 to decrease gastic cancer cell proliferation Supplemental Figures Fig. 1 (A) (B) Fig. 1 Control immunohistochemistry of gastric cancers and adjacent tissues with no primary antibody. (A) Gastric cancer tissues; (B) Adjacent tissues. Original magnification of Immunohistochemistry was ×200. Fig. 2 (A) (B) Fig. 2 Comparison of the level of TIPE2 mRNA in paraneoplastic control and tumor tissues. (A) Gel electrophoresis of the PCR products. The PCR templates used were as following: lane 1, no template; lane 2, cDNA of the mRNA extracted from paraneoplastic control tissue; lane 3, cDNA of the mRNA extracted from gastric cancer tissue, the cDNA was undetectable. (B) Quantitative real-time PCR analysis of TIPE2 mRNAs from adjacent paraneoplastic control and tumor tissues (p=0.0047). The mRNA extration, cDNA synthesis, 35 cycles PCR and quantitative real-time PCR were performed as described in the Materials and Methods.
