Scientists discover clue to growing new breast tissue

In the study, which is published today in the journal Nature, a team led by
Jane Visvader, of the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute in Melbourne, isolated
mammary stem cells from the breast pads of female mice for the first time.

female mouse from which all breast tissue had been removed. The cell divided
and eventually gave rise to all the normal types of cell found in the mouse
breast, and the gland worked normally to produce milk.
