Lactose synthesized in the mammary gland can pass into the bloodstream by either a
paracellular or transcellular pathway. In nonpregnant, nonlactating women, the …

Metabolites in the lactose synthesis pathway were measured in human milk during
established lactation. The mean concentrations (range) were: lactose, 198 m M (175–233); …

A study was undertaken to define an appropriate marker of lactogenesis II (the onset of
copious milk secretion) in mothers, and to determine the effect of diabetes on this marker …

The concentrations of lactose, glucose, glucose 6-phosphate (G6P), glucose 1-phosphate
(G1P), UDPglucose (UDPglc), UDPgalactose (UDPgal), and inorganic phosphate (P …

The concentration of lactose in plasma was determined in different sows at all phases of
their reproductive cycle and related to the compositional changes in mammary secretion …

We have previously demonstrated that plasma glucose contributed 80% in the fed and 60%
in the fasted state to lactose synthesis in humans, and de novo synthesis in the breast …

Lactogenesis is the onset of milk secretion and includes all of the changes in the mammary
epithelium necessary to go from the undifferentiated mammary gland in early pregnancy to …

We studied the effects of a diet that was low in fat, high in carbohydrate (CHO) on milk lipid
composition and de novo endogenous fatty acid synthesis by the mammary gland in five …

1. Mammary tissue, obtained from rabbits at various stages of pregnancy and lactation, was
used for tissue-slice incubations to measure the rate of lactose biosynthesis and for relevant …

Breast volume and morphology of eight subjects were measured before conception and at
intervals throughout pregnancy until 1 month of lactation. Breast volume before conception …
