A shift from a basal-mesenchymal to a luminal-epithelial state of breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) as supported by the downregulation of stemness (e.g., CD44) and mesenchymal (e.g., FN1 and vimentin) markers, along with the upregulation of differentiation markers (e.g., CD24) and luminal-epithelial markers (e.g., CK19), was also observed. Here, KRT19 is linked to breast cancer.
