Dormant Breast Cancer Cells May Hide Inside Protective Cellular “Shields”
Dormant breast cancer cells may survive treatment inside protective cellular neighborhoods that require different therapeutic strategies. Inside a breast tumor, rapidly multiplying cancer cells can sit beside others that appear almost inactive. Researchers from the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS), Imperial College London and UCL Genetics Institute have now mapped these contrasting cellular regions [...]
A recent study reveals that dormant breast cancer cells can survive treatments in protective cellular environments. Researchers from the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences, Imperial College London, and the UCL Genetics Institute mapped distinct regions within tumors, identifying areas with active and dormant cancer cells. The study, published in the journal Genome Medicine, identified that immune and connective tissue cells frequently surround d…
