Abstract

)seemed to be a protective factor (pCR ypT0/is ypN0: OR 0.34, 95%CI: 0.11-1.00; pCR ypT0 ypN0: OR 0.31, 95%CI 0.10-0.93). The subcellular localization-dependent significance of pMST1/2 expression suggests their involvement in different molecular networks with opposite impact on NAT efficacy. Larger studies are warranted to confirm these novel findings.
