GATA3 and MUC1 real-time RT-PCR analysis in 36 invasive breast carcinomas. (a) Linear regression analysis of GATA3 and MUC1 mRNA expression levels in invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) with 95% mean prediction interval (r = 0.6; p < 0.0001). (b,c) GATA3 (p = 0.008) (b) and MUC1 (p = 0.009) (c) mRNA expression of IDC in association with ERα status. Results are real-time RT-PCR values of the assayed gene relative to 18S rRNA used as normalizing control and are shown as means ± 2 SEM based on a log₂ transformation.
