FN1 and breast carcinoma: We used tubulin β3 neuronal marker to rank human breast cancer primary tumors according to their nerve densities and showed a strong correlation with TGFβ1, fibronectin, N-cadherin, and Snail mesenchymal transcript expression as well as an inverse correlation with both ZO1 and catenin-β1 epithelial transcripts (Fig 5J).
