title: Morphogenesis in mammary gland cell cultures. Occurrence of tubular structures in combined cultures of fibroblastic and normal epithelial cells.
abstract: In cultures with a dense confluent layer of fibroblasts mixed with a small population of normal mouse mammary epithelial cells, the latter form tubular structures that can be stimulated to secretion by hormones.
