OverviewEpithelial cells of the mammary gland have the ability to proliferate, differentiate and undergo apoptosis. A murine model system for studying mammary epithelial cell behavior is the Hn1 cell line, which has some stem and/or progenitor cell characteristics. Hn1 cells can be maintained, in response to special treatment conditions, as undifferentiated cells, competent cells capable of responding to lactogenic hormones, or they can be induced to differentiate. Based on data obtained from a gene array, the aim of this project was to investigate differentially expressed genes in Hn1 cells, which might be stem/progenitor cell marker candidates and determine their functions in Hn1 cells. This book will be useful for students and individuals working in a microbiological environment interested in the emerging field of adult stem cells. Furthermore this study describes a strategy to identify and validate stem cell marker candidates. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Thomas WiedlPublisher: VDM Verlag Dr. Muller Aktiengesellschaft & Co.
