Abstract excerpt
A culture method to grow two morphologically distinguishable normal human breast epithelial cell types derived from reduction mammoplasty has been developed. Type I cells were characterized by a more variable cell shape, smooth cell colony boundaries, the expression of epithelial membrane antigen...
