We want to understand breast cancer and we use the MMTV-PyMT mammary tumor mouse model, where oncogenesis is induced by the polyoma virus middle T (PyMT) oncoprotein under the control of the mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV) promoter. After testing different anti-E-Cadherin antibodies, we chose this product due to the reliable and reproducible results we got.
