Figure 1 Ratios of SphK1 mRNA (A) and LPAR2 mRNA (B) in cancer tissue to those in normal tissue. Both normalized to β-actin mRNA, as measured by real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. In two-thirds of the samples, expression of SphK1 mRNA in cancer tissue was more than two-fold that of normal tissue. Colorectal cancer tissue in 20 of 27 patients expressed a higher level of LPAR2 mRNA than in normal tissue.
