  1. N  sample numbers, nd  not determined, ns  not significant
  2. Immunohistochemical analysis of CaMKK2 expression in human breast cancer tissue microarrays, from two independent datasets (8 and Roswell Park Cancer Institute, RPCI). CaMKK2 expression was determined to be low (<2) or high (> = 2), and correlated with molecular subtypes: triple negative (TN), luminal A (LA), and luminal B (LB). Fisher’s exact test was used to determine p-values for the likelihood of association
