SOX2 and breast carcinoma: When we examined the expression status of SOX2 in two sets of breast cancer cell lines organized by luminal, basal-A (i.e., basal-like breast cancer intrinsic subtype), and basal-B (i.e., claudin-low breast cancer intrinsic subtype) sub-classes [38, 39], most of the SOX2-overexpressing breast carcinoma cell lines were found to belong to the luminal subclass (Figure 4A).
