Cell fate takes a slug in BRCA1-associated breast cancer.

Breast cancer research : BCR - 6 Apr 2011

Lindeman Geoffrey J, Visvader Jane E

Abstract excerpt

Understanding why BRCA1 mutation carriers have a predilection for developing clinically aggressive basal-like breast tumors could inform the development of targeted treatment or prevention strategies. Analysis of both mouse and human mammary epithelial cells has identified a role for BRCA1 in orchestrating differentiation. The ability to isolate discrete epithelial subpopulations from mammary tissue has recently...
