Furthermore, this activation correlated with a better response to anthracyclines (used in standard-of-care chemotherapy regimens), although the trend failed to reach significance (Fig.
In contrast, the co-expression of HORMAD1 and CT83 induced a highly significant, 4-fold increase of the MaSC compartment (Fig. 6E ).
In the same tumors, DMRTC2 expression tended to associate with poorer survival, however the trend did not reach statistical significance, maybe because the size of the DMRTC2-negative group was small ( n = 20), in line with the prevalent re-expression of DMRTC2) in Her2-positive tumors (Fig. 2E ).
