During normal mammary gland development, the tyrosine kinase Jak2 and its main
substrate, the signal transducer and activator of transcription-5 (Stat5), are critical for the …

Successful lactation depends on a controlled process of cell proliferation and mammary
gland growth during pregnancy and cell death during involution. The main type of cell death …

We have used cDNA microarray analysis to identify genes that play a role in bovine
mammary involution. Involution was induced by termination of milking, and alveolar tissue …

We studied the effects of TRH on the cytosolic free calcium concentration ([Ca2+] i) of female
rat pituitary prolactin-secreting (lactotroph) and GH-secreting (somatotroph) cells in the early …

Background The mammary gland undergoes a sophisticated programme of developmental
changes during pregnancy/lactation. However, little is known about processes involving …

Mammary epithelial cell (MEC) growth is reduced in continuously milked (CM) mammary
glands, and administration of a mammogenic compound such as prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) …

In submandibular gland atrophy, most acinar cells disappear by apoptosis, while many duct
cells remain. The present study aimed to establish whether Bcl‐2 and Bax, members of the …

Hormonal stimulation of mammary explants mimics many of the biochemical changes
observed during lactogenesis. Previous studies using eutherian species conclude that …

Ubi-d4, belonging to d4 gene family, it involves in apoptosis response and modulates cell
growth and turnover. The object of this study was to identify and verify if Ubi-d4 was involved …

Le tamoxifène (Tam) est le principal médicament utilisé dans le monde en hormonothérapie
des cancers du sein qui expriment les récepteurs des oestrogènes. Dans une première …
