Fig. 2From: High expression of eIF4E is associated with tumor macrophage infiltration and leads to poor prognosis in breast cancereIF4E transcription in subgroups of patients with BRCA, stratified based on gender, age and other criteria (UALCAN). Box-whisker plots showing the expression of eIF4E in sub groups of BRCA samples. A Boxplot showing relative expression of eIF4E in normal and BRCA samples. B Boxplot showing relative expression of eIF4E in normal individuals of any age or in BRCA patients aged 21–40, 41–60, 61–80, or 81–100 yr. C Boxplot showing relative expression of eIF4E in BRCA based on breast cancer subclasses. D Boxplot showing relative expression of eIF4E in normal individuals or in BRCA patients in stages 1, 2, 3 or 4. E Boxplot showing relative expression of eIF4E in BRCA based on nodal metastasis status. F Boxplot showing relative expression of eIF4E in BRCA based on TP53 mutation status. The central mark is the median; the edges of the box are the 25th and 75th percentiles. The t-test was used to estimate the significance of difference in gene expression levels between groups. *, p < 0.05; **, p < 0.01; ***, p < 0.001Back to article page
