Brief description Cell polarity is the property of cells to be spatially oriented in a tissue or organ. We have shown that Scribble, a key regulator of cell orientation, may keep tumour development in check. In this proposal, we will examine how disruption of Scribble promotes breast cancer using a combination of tissue culture studies and a newly established mouse model. Understanding how this new pathway can regulate breast tumour development may provide novel targets for therapeutic intervention in cancer.
