the failure of AAV2 to productively infect normal epithelial cells could be clinically advantageous and potentially portrays AAV2 as an ideal biological therapeutic. Our results suggest the potential for AAV2 to be developed as therapeutics for multiple types of breast cancer. Further, understanding the molecular mechanisms central to AAV2 targeting of cell death pathways in breast cancer derived cell lines will help in the design of more effective therapeutics irrespective of the type and grade of breast cancer.
