Over the past two decades, the field of tissue engineering has focused primarily on the creation of tissues for patients. The emphasis of the field is now shifting to include the creation of complex in vitro tissue models that help to explain disease processes (for example, breast cancer) and...
and a few months later the breast tissue begins to grow. A few pubichairsdevelop, and she enters into a period of relatively rapid growth. Theovariesbegin producingestrogen, causing fat deposits to develop on the hips and thighs, and the slim, angular girl moves steadily toward a more rounde...
The Role and Mechanism of PKA Inhibitors in the Expression of Fibronectin of Estrogen-induced Breast Cancer Cells Objective:To observe the impact of H89 on the cell migration and the protein expression of fibronectin(FN) in MCF-7 breast cancer cells and its relationshi... H Wang,X Liu,Y Do...
The mitotic activity of breast epithelial cells is very high in the follicular phase but slows in the luteal phase. This finding confirms the protective action of progesterone on breast tissue due to its inhibitory action on 1 α-hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase and apoptosis 40. Several studies have...
