Supplementary material. Table S1: Gene ontology terms enriched in the genes differentially expressed between the two main clusters in the MDG dataset (cluster 1 and 2 in Figure 1) and the AHUS1 dataset (small and large cluster in Figure 2). Table S2: S2 Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) of cluster 1 versus cluster 2 using selected gene lists from the literature. Table S3: Comparison of cluster 1 and cell types/subtypes from published gene lists. The number of genes up- and down-regulated is given for genes characterizing each cell type and each cluster. Figure S1: Hierarchical clustering of gene expression of 79 samples from breasts of healthy women. The samples are clustered based on gene lists from the literature, describing different cell types. Figure S2: Biopsies from healthy women (MDG) clustered with two unpublished datasets including mammoplasty reductions and tumor adjacent normal breast tissue. Figure S3: Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of 79 samples from breasts of healthy women. Includes estimated subtype of non-claudin-low samples.
