Figure 6

Comparison of numbers of methylated genes in relation to CD44+/CD24− (a) and ALDH1 expression (b). The number of methylated genes is significantly lower in the CD44+/CD24− cell (+) and ALDH1 (+) group. In subgroup analyses of the basal-like (c) and non-basal-like subtypes (d), the number of methylated genes is significantly lower in the CD44+/CD24-cell (+) group within the basal-like subtype, and there is a tendency for lower methylation in the CD44+/CD24-cell (+) group of non-basal-like subtypes.
