Subsequent statistical analysis indicated that total and cytosolic TMEM120B expression positively correlated with advanced TNM stage (P = 0.011,P = 0.015) and lymph node metastasis (P = 0.006,P = 0.007) but not with age or triple-negative breast cancer, however, nuclear TMEM120B revealed no visible correlation with clinicopathologic factors(P > 0.05, Table 2). The gene discussed is TMEM120B; the disease is metastatic malignant neoplasm in the lymph nodes.
