Moreover, two key growth factors in the fibrotic response were also identified, TGFB3 and CTGF. The second tumor group (group B), composed of 59 breast carcinomas, showed expression of a mixture of genes (gene cluster 2, left sidebar) that were enriched for those genes that positively identified SFT (see right sidebar: genes highly expressed in SFT are represented by pink). This evidence concerns the gene CCN2 and neoplasm.
