ALDH1 is a marker of normal and malignant human mammary stem cells and a predictor of poor clinical outcome.

TL;DR: It is shown that normal and cancer human mammary epithelial cells with increased aldehyde dehydrogenase activity (ALDH) have stem/progenitor properties and these cells contain the subpopulation of normal breast epithelium with the broadest lineage differentiation potential and greatest growth capacity in a xenotransplant model.
Journal ArticleDOI

Breast cancer cell lines contain functional cancer stem cells with metastatic capacity and a distinct molecular signature.

TL;DR: It is shown that ALDEFLUOR-positive cells are responsible for mediating metastasis and the hierarchical organization of immortalized cell lines, establish techniques that can facilitate the characterization of regulatory pathways of CSCs, and identify potential stem cell markers and therapeutic targets.

Sequential Adjuvant Epirubicin-Based and Docetaxel Chemotherapy for Node-Positive Breast Cancer Patients: The FNCLCC PACS 01 Trial

TL;DR: The PACS 01 trial as mentioned in this paper compared six cycles of fluorouracil, epirubicin, and cyclophosphamide (FEC) with a sequential regimen of three cycles of FEC followed by three cycle of docetaxel as adjuvant treatment for node-positive early breast cancer.
