Mammary organoids derived from mouse embryonic stem cells could offer clues into mammary gland developmental origins and help researchers study breast cancer. “When we use embryonic stem cells, they ...

Genetics and other factors that can determine if a woman is at risk for a recurrence of breast cancer have been identified, providing new research avenues for preventing a new tumor from developing.

This image shows the cross-section of a mouse mammary gland duct taken with a confocal microscope. The mammary stem cells are labeled in pink. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not responsible for ...

Scientists are making mammary gland organoids with 3D milk ducts that could shed light on lactation and breast cancer development. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Stem cells levitated with sound can spontaneously form spherical blobs. The technique could be used to grow tissues or simple miniature organs without researchers having to physically manipulate cells ...

Organoids are 3D cell culture models that more accurately reflect the structural and functional complexities of organs in vitro than traditional 2D cell culture methods. Generally derived from stem ...
