Abstract

Using mortal non-tumorigenic human mammary epithelial cells and fibroblasts, Fordyce and colleagues show that an epithelial stress response promotes pro-tumorigenic changes in mammary fibroblasts. Fibroblast reprogramming was dependent on activin A or prostaglandin E2 produced by epithelial cells and, in turn, promoted enhanced migration of epithelial cells. These events in epithelial cells in vitro, including telomere loss, heightened DNA damage response, and activin A expression, are observed in breast ductal carcinoma in situ lesions surrounded by stroma bearing hallmarks of activated fibroblasts and immune and endothelial cell infiltration. Thus, reciprocal epithelial-stromal interactions facilitate progression to malignancy and occur even at the earliest stages of mammary tumorigenesis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 10 April 2013.
All research outputs
#20,655,488
of 25,373,627 outputs
Outputs from Breast Cancer Research
#1,705
of 2,052 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#160,855
of 208,477 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Breast Cancer Research
#21
of 26 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,373,627 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,052 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 12.2. This one is in the 8th percentile – i.e., 8% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 208,477 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 26 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
