From: CD44 isoforms are heterogeneously expressed in breast cancer and correlate with tumor subtypes and cancer stem cell markers

Figure 5

Hierarchical clustering of breast tumors based on CD44 isoform expression resulted in four main clusters. The heatmap shows relative mRNA expression levels (red, high; green, low). Tumors in Cluster C and D were associated to the basal-like molecular subtype and cluster B was associated to luminal A-classified tumors. Cluster B and D had the highest proportions of tumors of the CD44+/CD24- phenotype.
