The objectives of this study were thus 1) to investigate for the first time AR and FOXA1 expression in a large series of feline mammary carcinomas, 2) to assess their relationships with other clinical and pathological features of FMCs, 3) to investigate their prognostic significance in the feline patient, and 4) to put the first cornerstone for a better characterization of triple-negative FMCs, with identification of a luminal-AR subtype. This evidence concerns the gene FOXA1 and breast carcinoma.
