Fig. 3: EPHA7 was implicated in SNHG14-regulated CRC development.

a The expression of EPHA7 at protein level in normal tissues was suggested by online THPA. b TCGA database indicated the downregulation of EPHA7 in COAD and READ tissues compared to the normal tissues. c The qRT-PCR result of the expression level of EPHA7 in CRC cell lines and NCM460 cells. d, e The relative expression of EPHA7 in CRC cells under different transfections was assessed using qRT-PCR. f–i The impact of EPHA7 inhibition or overexpression on SNHG14 depletion- or upregulation-affected cellular processes in CRC cells was estimated by performing colony formation assay, CCK-8 assay, transwell assay and western blot. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01
