Microenvironment-contextual cell signaling is attenuated with age
2019-06-27
Abstract excerpt
Post-menopausal women are more prone to breast cancer than younger women. The increased frequency of age-related breast cancers is likely due to interactions between acquired mutations and age-dependent epigenetic changes that affect mammary epithelial lineage fidelity. We hypothesized that the aging process fundamentally affects how human mammary epithelial cells (HMEC) respond to microenvironmental signals, resu...
