Metabolic subgroups resulting from hierarchical
clustering of MR metabolic profiles from a large cohort
of breast tumor biopsies were combined with data from
gene expression and reverse phased protein arrays to
search for any relationship between metabolic profiles
and molecular subtypes. No such relationships were
established, which might make it possible for a more
refined division of subtypes into subclasses based on
metabolic differences. Bridging information from several
molecular levels in the same tumor may improve our
knowledge about various classes of breast cancer that
may contribute to personalized treatment.
