title: Breast cancer: induction of differentiation by embryonic tissue.
abstract: A mouse mammary tumor, adenocarcinoma BW 10232, was maintained in vitro for 14 days, separated from embryonic mammary mesenchyme by a Millipore filter. Tubules developed in the tumor; deoxyibonucleic acid synthisis declined; and a presumptive acid mucopolysaccharide matrix, not evident in the controls, appeared.
