DESCRIPTION:Abstract: My group uses genetic approaches to study the intert
 wined roles of both Wnt and Hedgehog signaling in cell-fate decisions and 
 amplification of stem and progenitor cell populations during embryonic and
  post-natal mammary development.  We also investigate how these functions 
 are linked to tumor onset and progression in adult mice. In an effort to i
 dentify further lineage markers with better prognostic utility for breast 
 cancer subtypes we have begun to investigate a novel Adhesion-G-protein co
 upled receptor and a TGFbeta-binding protein\, which identify early mammar
 y stem/progenitors cells and specific luminal subpopulations respectively.
