The Aggressiveness of African breast cancer: An expose’ on CD44+CD24-/low breast cancer stem cell

2021-02-08

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Breast cancer (BC) in Africans and people of African descent is generally aggressive, with poorer prognosis and worse clinical outcomes. The molecular basis of this is however not entirely understood. The CD44<sup>+ </sup>/ CD24<sup>-/low</sup> BC stem cell is known for its tumourigenic potential, tumour aggressiveness and its association with poor prognosis. This study identifies the r...
