This project aims to explore the differences between normal and cancer mammary stem cells, focusing on the role of the Numb protein in regulating cell fate. By understanding these mechanisms, it seeks to identify potential therapeutic targets for breast cancer treatment.
Stem cells (SCs) are thought to be integral to the development and progression of cancer, and their eradication may be essential for the cure of cancer.
Yet, direct proof is lacking due to our poor understanding of the molecular differences between normal and cancer SCs.
We will investigate normal and cancer mammary stem cells (MSCs) by focusing on the role of the cell fate determinant Numb in two signaling axes:
Numb:Notch and Numb:p53.
Numb is a tumor suppressor in human breast cancer.
