Correlations of AR with expression of FA β-oxidation-associated genes and GLUT1.

AR expression show positive correlation with FA oxidation (A) and negative correlation with GLUT1 expression (B). AR, expression level of androgen receptor gene; FA, fatty acid; FA oxidation, gene set enrichment score of FA β-oxidation-associated genes; GLUT1, expression level of GLUT1 (SLC2A1) gene.</p

Correlations among AR, SUV_max, and glycolysis-associated genes expressions analyzed using GSE135565 database.

SUVmax was well correlated with glycolysis score (A). A negative correlation between AR expression and SUVmax was observed (B). The AR expression is inversely correlated with glycolysis score (C). AR, expression level of androgen receptor gene; Glycolysis score indicates how close gene expression pattern of a sample is, to expected expression pattern of the glycolysis-related gene set.</p

Difference of SUV_max according to AR status in FDG PET analysis.

SUVmax is higher in AR-negative than in AR-positive TNBC. Violin plots indicate the distribution of SUVmax according to the AR positivity. Box plot inside the violin plot denotes median value as a central line within a box, 25 percentile and 75 percentile value as an outline of a box and minimum and maximal number are marked as error bar with outliers marked separately.
