Luminal progenitors undergo partial epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition at the onset of basal-like breast tumorigenesis
2022-06-09
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Defects in double-strand repair mechanisms - both through germline or somatic inactivation of repair genes - is a hallmark of basal-like breast cancers. In this genetically-unstable context, a recurrent shift in cell identity occurs within the mammary epithelium. Basal-like tumors have indeed been proposed to originate from luminal progenitor (LP) cells yet tumor-initiating events remain poorly u...
