We found that LDHA levels were positively correlated with ki67 status and distant metastasis (P = 0.013 and 0.001, respectively) but not correlated with age, menopause, tumor size, lymph node metastasis, clinical stage, local relapse, ER, PR, HER2, P53 or VEGF status among the 121 breast cancer patients (Table 1). The gene discussed is LDHA; the disease is breast cancer.
