The expression levels of 166 targets of all three factors (Nanog, Oct4, and Sox2) clustered the PYK2 highly expressed basal-like BC patients separately from the PYK2 low-expressing patients (Fig 6F), demonstrating the clinical correlation between PYK2 expression and the activity of Nanog and Oct4 in those patients, and further highlighting the clinically relevance of our findings. The gene discussed is NANOG; the disease is breast cancer.
