Scientists find 2 key proteins that regulate growth of mammary stem cells and contrib

[News]

By carefully controlling the levels of two proteins, researchers at the Salk Institute have discovered how to keep mammary stem cells-those that can form breast tissue-alive and functioning in the lab. The new ability to propagate mammary stem cells is allowing them to study both breast development and the formation of breast cancers.
