Brief description Breast cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease with multiple molecular and histological subtypes. We propose to use novel genetically engineered mice to understand breast inter-tumoral heterogeneity by dissecting the cells of origin of breast cancer in vivo. Initially, we will examine whether long-lived stem or progenitor cells are the targets of breast carcinogenesis induced by a progesterone derivative using our state-of-the-art multi-coloured reporter models to track the cells in vivo.
