Figure 3

Differential transcription of genes encoding enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of HS repeating unit. (A,B) Relative transcript abundance of mRNAs for enzymes involved in the synthesis of HS chains. Relative abundance for healthy tissues (gray bars) and tumors (black bars) are plotted on a logarithmic scale for each gene assayed and spreads represent the standard deviations. (A) Non-metastatic IDCs. (B) Metastatic IDCs. (C) Relative expression ratio of genes that show statistically significant differences in expression in non-metastatic () or metastatic (■) IDCs. Values on the Y axis are represented on a logarithmic scale. NDST4 was not detected in healthy tissues.
