Table 1 Summary of dysregulated genes in early and late stage in each of the three molecular classes. The table shows significantly dysregulated genes with a log2 fold change greater than or less than 1. In early stage, there was a greater number of dysregulated genes as compared to late stage. The log2 fold change varied from 1-13 in early stages and 1-20 in late stages. In the case of late-stage ER/PR-/HER-2+, the analysis could not be done as there was no sample of NAT to compare with. The larger number of genes were found to be downregulated in all classes.
