Knockdown of NAMPT suppresses CRC cell growth in vivo. a-d The effect of NAMPT expression on in vivo tumorigenicity was evaluated using a xenograft nude mouse model. a Tumors formed in nude mice; b dissected subcutaneous tumors, scale bars: 10 mm; c curves of tumor growth; d tumor weight; number = five mice/group. The error bars indicate the SD. Student’s t-test was used for statistical analysis. e The protein expression levels of NAMPT in xenograft tumors were analyzed by western blotting. f Quantification of the protein expression levels of NAMPT in xenograft tumors. Student’s t-test was used for statistical analysis. g Representative images of IHC staining for NAMPT in the xenografts. The box graphs show the quantification of IHC staining. Scale bars: 50 μm. Student’s t-test was used for statistical analysis. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, and *** P < 0.001 compared with the control group
