Fig. 6: Increased ASNS is positively associated with NUCKS1 expression in osteosarcoma.

A The expression levels of ASNS in osteosarcoma (n = 88) and normal tissues (n = 564) were analyzed from the TNMplot database. B, C Representative microphotographs of ASNS immunohistochemical staining of normal bone tissues and osteosarcoma tissue sections (B). The expression of ASNS in normal bone tissues and osteosarcoma tissue was assessed (C). D The relationship between ASNS expression and tumor staging was analyzed. E Kaplan–Meier plot of the overall survival rate of 262 patients with sarcoma. The data were obtained from the GEPIA database. F Kaplan–Meier plot of the overall survival rate of 259 patients with sarcoma. The data were obtained from the Kaplan–Meier Plotter. G, H Representative microphotographs of ASNS immunohistochemical staining of osteosarcoma tissues and the correction between ASNS and NUCKS1 were analyzed. Data in C, D and H were analyzed by Student’s t test, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001.
