Strikingly, the levels of miRNAs in both subgroups (HER2-positive and TNBC) displayed a different preference to correlate with clinicopathogical parameters: With only one exception (miR-152 and stromal lymphocytes, see Additional file 1: Table S2), no miRNA correlated with a clinical parameter, such as nodal status, tumor size, grading, lymphocyte predominant BC, Ki67 expression, and intratumoral lymphocytes, in both subgroups. The gene discussed is ERBB2; the disease is neoplasm.
