Research potential of a unique xenograft model of human proliferative breast disease.
A workshop on the 'Research potential of a unique xenograft model of human proliferative breast disease' was held at the Karmanos Cancer Institute, Wayne State University, Detroit, Michigan, in November of 1998. The accumulated information and current experimental findings on the MCF10AT model of preneoplastic, proliferative breast disease were reviewed. Discussions focused on the relevance of the model to clinical breast cancer and on the most profitable lines of further research to strengthen its utility.
