... agents against the development of carcinogen-induced preneoplastic lesions and is highly correlative to in vivo carcinogenesis models. Here, we developed a new ex vivo MMOC model, by introducing human breast cancer cells into the mouse mammary gland. This novel model, termed human breast cancer in MMOC...

...Sudipa June Chatterjee; Ruba Halaoui; Rebecca Catherine Deagle; Carlis Rejon; Luke McCaffrey ABSTRACT The mammary gland undergoes extensive expansion of a ductal network through the stroma during puberty and is an excellent model for understanding epithelial tube morphogenesis.

...-catenin and involvement in E-cadherin internalization, little structure or function information exists. Here we explored shrew-1 expression during postnatal differentiation of mammary gland as a model system. Immunohistological analyses with antibodies against either the extracellular or the cytoplasmic...
