Correlation between TGFB1, TGFBR2 and SMAD7 genes in breast cancer samples from TCGA project. Extremely significant correlations were evidenced between the expression of TGFB1 and TGFBR2 (a), TGFB1 and SMAD7 (b) and between TGFBR2 and SMAD7 (c) genes in tumor tissue samples from the breast cancer cohort of TCGA project. SMAD7 was evaluated as a reporter gene for the activation of classical TGFβ pathway in these analyses. Graphs and statistics generated using the GEPIA2 analysis resource (http://gepia2.cancer-pku.cn/#index)
