2021-10-21
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Women with germline mutations in BRCA1 (BRCA1 +/mut ) have increased risk for developing hereditary breast cancer 1, 2 . Cancer initiation in BRCA1 +/mut is associated with pre-malignant changes in the breast epithelium including altered differentiation 3–5 , proliferative stress 6 and genomic instability 7 . However, the role of the epithelium- associated stromal niche during BRCA1-driven...
