Human mammary epithelial cells that undergo an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in culture may grow in suspension into structures called mammospheres--a trait they share with mammary epithelial stem cells. Here, the yellow cells present surface proteins indicating that they can develop into more than one type of mammary cell.
