Characterization of Human Mammary Epithelial Stem Cells
Previous studies have demonstrated that normal mammary tissue contains a hierarchy of cell types that are ultimately and continuously derived from a self-sustaining mammary stem cell population. However, a suitable assay for detecting, quantifying and characterizing such cells in humans has been lacking. Here we show that histologically normal, bi-layered mammary epithelial structures containin...
متن کاملPathogenic interactions between Helicobacter pylori adhesion protein HopQ and human cell surface adhesion molecules CEACAMs in gastric epithelial cells
Objective(s): The present paper aims to review the studies describing the interactions between HopQ and CEACAMs along with possible mechanisms responsible for pathogenicity of Helicobacter pylori.Materials and Methods: The literature was searched on “PubMed” using different key words including Helicobacter pylori, CEACAM and gastric.<br ...
متن کاملGenotoxicity of environmental agents in human mammary epithelial cells.
Despite an increasing incidence of human breast cancer, its etiology remains unknown. Since some environmental chemicals are stored in human breast fat and are rodent mammary carcinogens, determining the genotoxic potential of environmental agents in this key target tissue is important. An assay was developed for detecting genotoxic activity, as unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS), induced by chemi...
متن کاملCarcinogen-induced histone alteration in normal human mammary epithelial cells.
Little is known about early carcinogen-induced protein alterations in mammary epithelium. Detection of early alterations would enhance our understanding of early-stage carcinogenesis. Here, normal human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs) were exposed to dietary and environmental carcinogens [2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5b]pyridine (PhIP), 4-aminobiphenyl (ABP), benzo[a]pyrene, 2,3,7,8-tetr...
متن کاملQuantification of regenerative potential in primary human mammary epithelial cells
We present an organoid regeneration assay in which freshly isolated human mammary epithelial cells are cultured in adherent or floating collagen gels, corresponding to a rigid or compliant matrix environment. In both conditions, luminal progenitors form spheres, whereas basal cells generate branched ductal structures. In compliant but not rigid collagen gels, branching ducts form alveoli at the...
