Furthermore, using METABRIC data, we found positive correlations between expression of ZFP36 and genes associated with the stem-like phenotype, as TWIST1, TWIST2, SNAI1, ZEB1, ZEB2, ALDH1A and YAP1 (Fougner et al., 2020) in all breast cancer subtypes (Figure 2D). This evidence concerns the gene TWIST1 and breast carcinoma.
