Ionizing radiation is the exogenous agent best proven to induce breast cancer. c-erbB2/neu amplification and overexpression are known to occur in breast cancer and are correlated with aggressive tumor growth and poor prognosis. We have developed simian virus 40-immortalized cell lines from normal hu
One of the proposed mechanisms of carcinogenic action of TCDD (=dioxin) on breast cells is that it causes significant inhibition of proper differentiation of mammary duct epithelial cells and thereby increases the number of terminal end buds, which are susceptible to other carcinogens (
## Abstract MCF‐ 10A is a spontaneously immortalized, non‐transformed human mammary epithelial cell line. We have recently obtained MCF‐ 10A clones (MCF‐ 1OA HE cells) that are transformed following over‐expression of both a human point‐mutated c‐Ha‐__ras__ and the c‐__erb__B‐2 proto‐oncogenes. Two
