Bioinformatics analysis of PTAFR expression in BC tissues and OG cell lines. (A) Expression fold changes of PTAFR in patients with BS vs. normal breast tissues. The data were obtained from the Oncomine database. (B) Survival analysis using the PTAFR mRNA expression level for incidences of bone metastasis in Minn's dataset, P-values were calculated on the basis of a log-rank test. (C) Comparison of PTAFR mRNA relative expression in OG and non-OG cell lines following Rankl stimulation. Data were obtained from the GSE43811 dataset and are presented as the mean ± standard error of the mean (n=3). P-values were calculated using a Student's t-test. **P<0.01 and ***P<0.001. OG, osteoclastogenic; PTAFR, platelet-activating factor receptor; BC, breast cancer.
