Downregulated METTL14 Expression Correlates with Breast Cancer Tumor Grade and Molecular Classification

Table 1

METTL14 expression in breast tissue specimens.

GroupNo.METTL14 expression
Low expression, (%)High expression, (%)

Normal tissue246 (25.0%)18 (75.0%)
Cancerous tissue398188 (47.2%)210 (52.8%)

High METTL14 expression was defined as a nuclear staining intensity of positive invasive cancer cells of 2 or 3 [17]. vs. normal breast tissue.
