IHC analysis was performed using an anti-SUSD2 antibody on 175 patient breast tumors representing the following subtypes: invasive, in situ, ER positive, PR positive, HER-2 amplification, triple negative and lymph node (LN) involvement. The number of tumors is each group is indicated by parentheses. Tumors were placed into groups according to SUSD2 staining score, 0, 1+, 2+ and 3+. The percentage of tumors stained is indicated.
