Abstract 2649: Isolation and characterization of novel murine mammary cell line with dormant phenotype and identification of new potential targets by mass spectrometry
Abstract:Breast cancer is the first cause of death from female cancer. After treatments against the primary tumor, a few cells can prevail in a dormant state for a long period, becoming minimal residual disease. These cells can resume growth and establish as metastasis, which are responsible for 90% of deaths from cancer. Patients with breast cancer diagnosed at early stage with small tumours have a 25-30% chance of recurrence after 10-15 years after treatment. These new growth often entails chemo and radio resistance … Show more
