CD36 Repression Activates a Multicellular Stromal Program Shared by High Mammographic Density and Tumor Tissues
10 Jul 2012
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Although high mammographic density is considered one of the strongest risk factors for invasive breast cancer, the genes involved in modulating this clinical feature are unknown. Tissues of high mammographic density share key histologic features with stromal components within malignant lesions of tumor tissues, specifically low adipocyte and high extracellular matrix (ECM) content. We show that CD36,...
