DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Colinda Scheele\nhosted by Edouard Hannezo\nAbstract: 
 Oncogenic mutations are common in healthy tissues but rarely form tumors. 
 Using the mammary gland as a model\, we explored how tissue organization a
 nd dynamics affect mutant cell fate. Through lineage tracing and intravita
 l imaging\, we found that rounds of local tissue remodeling\, driven by th
 e estrous cycle led to the elimination of the majority of mutant clones. H
 owever\, it simultaneously enabled a minority of mutant clones\, that by c
 hance survived\, to geometrically expand. This expansion led to cohesive f
 ields of mutant cells spanning large parts of the mammary ducts\, predispo
 sing these ducts to tumor formation. Once tumors form\, breast cancer resp
 onse to neoadjuvant chemotherapy varies\, even within the same subtype. Ag
 ain\, we identified the estrous cycle as a key factor in this variability.
  In three mouse models\, NAC response was reduced when treatment began dur
 ing diestrus compared to estrus. Similar patterns were observed in retrosp
 ective premenopausal human cohorts\, highlighting the importance of treatm
 ent timing for improved chemotherapy outcomes.
