Among the aforementioned genes, AKT1 was also highly expressed in recurrent BC patients and the same AKT1 with ERBB2 and KRT8 was also highly expressed in patients with breast cancer as a specific cause of death, likely because of the higher rate of HER2-positive (non-luminal) and luminal B types among women with that expression pattern. The gene discussed is KRT8; the disease is breast cancer.
