From: RANK signaling increases after anti-HER2 therapy contributing to the emergence of resistance in HER2-positive breast cancer

Fig. 1

RANK and RANKL are expressed in treatment-naive and anti-HER2-resistant HER2 breast cancer tumor samples. a Frequency of HER2-positive patients, treatment-naive or anti-HER2-resistant, expressing tumoral RANK or RANKL (H-score ≥ 1). The total number of patients scored for RANK or RANKL expression is indicated. b Representative images showing RANK and RANKL IHC. c Frequency of tumoral RANK-positive treatment-naive HER2 or anti-HER2-resistant patients and associations with the indicated clinicopathological parameters including those assessed by the Nottingham Grading System (histological grade and proliferation determined by mitotic count and Ki67 as detailed in [19]). The total number of patients analyzed per parameter is indicated in each case. In a and c, two-sided chi-square p values are shown when p < 0.1. n.s., non-significant (see also Fig. S1A)
