Correlations of OPN with other tumor tissue proteins. Spearman r correlations of OPN with (A) TGFβ: all patients, N = 65; VD-normal, N = 17; VD-deficient, N = 48; postmenopausal, N = 41; nonmetastatic, N = 40; (B) EpCAM: VD-normal, N = 23; postmenopausal, N = 52; and LN-metastatic, N = 27. TGFβ, transforming growth factor β; EpCAM, epithelial cell adhesion molecule antigen; OPN, osteopontin; VD, vitamin D3; *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001.
