The GPR30 expression levels were significantly lower in tumor tissues from patients (n = 29) who had lymph node metastasis in comparison with tumors from patients (n = 53) who were negative for lymph node metastasis (two sample t-test, p < 0.02), but no association was found with ERα, PR and other tumor characteristics. This evidence concerns the gene ESR1 and metastatic malignant neoplasm in the lymph nodes.
