TBXA2R and breast carcinoma: Consistent with our findings that TBXA2R is highly expressed in a number of breast tumours, Watkins et al. have shown that TBXA2R mRNA is preferentially expressed in breast tumours in comparison to normal breast tissue, and a separate study showed TBXA2R gene expression was elevated in inflammatory breast cancer, however, the functional significance of TBXA2R in breast cancer has not been explored [23, 29].
