From: High TWIST1 mRNA expression is associated with poor prognosis in lymph node-negative and estrogen receptor-positive human breast cancer and is co-expressed with stromal as well as ECM related genes

Figure 2

Kaplan-Meier survival curves presenting the association of TWIST1 mRNA expression with metastasis-free survival in: A: all 1,427 patients; B: LNN patients only, C: LNN and ER-positive patients and D: LNN and ER-negative patients. The LNN patients in this study did not receive adjuvant systemic therapy. The patients are divided into four quartiles (Q1 (low) to Q4 (high)) based on TWIST1 mRNA expression levels after normalizing these to the expression of our set of three reference genes (B2M, HMBS and HPRT1). Patients at risk at various time points are indicated.
