The Role of Breastmilk in Macrophage-Tumour Cell Interactions in Postpartum Breast Cancer
Breastmilk has the potential to promote breast cancer proliferation, however, it can also reduce breast cancer progression through inhibition of breast cancer cell migration and regulation of macrophage polarisation. These findings suggest that breastmilk has potential to shape the tumour microenvironment in postpartum breast cancer.
