ESR1 and neoplasm: In a previous publication we investigated miRNA expression by microarray analysis in total RNA isolated from fresh frozen tumour from 104 LN- breast cancers, and showed amongst others that miR-106b, miR-18a/b, miR-25, miR-29c and miR-505 were strongly correlated to high proliferation [15] while others correlated with both ERα negativity and CK5/6 positivity.
