TRPS1 is a promising marker for all subtypes of breast cancer.

Aims: Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome-1 (TRPS1) has been proposed as a novel breast marker with equally high expression in breast cancer (BC) subtypes, making it a useful diagnostic tool. Here, its expression was evaluated alongside other commonly used markers [GATA3, GCDFP15, mammaglobin (MGB) and SOX10] in a large cohort of BCs (n = 1852) and their corresponding nodal metastases. Its usefulness as a diagnostic tool and its correlation with clinicopathological features were assessed.
