Abstract Here we use single-cell RNA sequencing to compile a human breast cell atlas assembled from 55 donors that had undergone reduction mammoplasties or risk mastectomies. From more than 800,000 cells identified 41 subclusters across the epithelial, immune and stromal compartments. The contribution of these different clusters varied according natural history tissue. Age, parity germline mutations, known modulate developing cancer, affected homeostatic cellular state in ways. We found...

Glioblastoma is an incurable brain malignancy. By the time of clinical diagnosis, these tumours exhibit a degree genetic and cellular heterogeneity that provides few clues to mechanisms initiate drive gliomagenesis1,2. Here, explore early steps in gliomagenesis, we utilized conditional gene deletion lineage tracing tumour mouse models, coupled with serial magnetic resonance imaging, then closely track formation. We isolated labelled unlabelled cells at multiple stages—before first visible...
