Pregnancy reprograms the epigenome of mammary epithelial cells and blocks the development of premalignant lesions

Mammary epithelial cells are epigenetically modified during pregnancy, these changes can influence the pre-disposition to cancer. Here, the authors examine the epigenetic landscape of mammary epithelial cells pre and post pregnancy and identify changes to the epigenetic landscape, which can protect...

Sumario:Mammary epithelial cells are epigenetically modified during pregnancy, these changes can influence the pre-disposition to cancer. Here, the authors examine the epigenetic landscape of mammary epithelial cells pre and post pregnancy and identify changes to the epigenetic landscape, which can protect mice from Myc induced cancer.
