Abstract excerpt
Emerging evidence from a variety of tissue types, including the mammary gland, suggests that normal stem and progenitor cells are the likely targets for malignant transformation, and that these transformed cells can function as cancer stem cells that drive tumour growth. In order to develop therapies that target these cancer stem cells, it is essential to determine the molecular mechanisms that regulate the...
