Table 1.

Overexpression of calcium-related proteins in human breast cancer patient samples. A list of differentially expressed calcium-related proteins in breast cancer patient tissue at the protein or transcript level is shown. Comparisons are made with respect to malignant vs. non-malignant tissue, tumor grade, and survival outcomes
