Additionally, log-2 HAX1 gene copy number units were compared between blood, breast, and invasive ductal and invasive lobular carcinoma in TCGA-BRCA cohort using the Oncomine Platform and were found to be elevated for both invasive ductal carcinoma (fold change: 1.273, p=9.26E-135, gene rank: top 1%, Figure 2(b)) and invasive lobular carcinoma (fold change: 1.297, p=1.13E-22, gene rank: top 2%, Figure 2(c)). Here, HAX1 is linked to invasive lobular breast carcinoma.
