Inverse relationship between NAMPT and p73 from breast cancer patient outcome analysis. NAMPT and p73 expression levels in breast cancer biopsy tissues from 176 breast cancer patients are correlated with patient survival and tumour grade. (a) High levels NAMPT or low levels of p73, but not p53, correlate with poorer patient survival. (b) NAMPT/p73 ratio was calculated for each tumour sample and a t-test was performed between sub-populations with low and high histological tumour grade. *P-values ⩽0.05 compared with low grade tumors.
