mammary carcinomas, does not express targetable oestrogen receptors (ER) and has the worst prognosis among all breast cancer subtypes. New research published in _Nature Medicine_ shows that


paracrine signalling between cancer cells and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in basal-like breast tumours determines their molecular subtype, and therapeutic inhibition of this


crosstalk can switch subtypes from an aggressive, basal-like subtype to the more druggable luminal subtype. This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS
