We found that the expression of miR-296-5p target genes hTERT, HMGA1, MMP1, MAP2K3, SCRIB, PUMA (BBC3) and IKBKE is higher in basal breast cancer and linked with significantly reduced distant metastasis free survival and relapse free survival in pooled breast cancer subtypes and basal type breast cancer (Figure 3D, 3F). This evidence concerns the gene IKBKE and breast carcinoma.
