Expression data from mammary epithelial cells from BRCA1 mutation carriers and non BRCA1 mutation carriers

Female BRCA1 mutation carriers have a nearly 80% probability of developing breast cancer during their life-time. We hypothesized that the breast epithelium at risk in BRCA1 mutation carriers harbors mammary epithelial cells (MECs) with altered proliferation and differentiation properties.
