## Abstract Human Criptoβ1 (CRβ1), a member of the epidermal growth factorβCFC (EGFβCFC) family of peptides, is expressed in the developing mouse mammary gland and can modulate mammary epithelial cell migration, branching morphogenesis and milk protein expression in vitro. In order to screen for a

Background: The mammary gland is one of the few organ systems in mammals that completes its morphologic development postnatally. Due to this unique developmental property, it serves as an excellent model for studying ductal morphogenesis beyond embryonic life. The primary objective of this study was
The nuclear transcription factor of activated T cells (NFAT) suggested to be a tumor suppressor. Here we report that two out of three NFATc3Γ/Γ and two in four NFATc3ΓΎ/Γ female mice developed aggressive mammary adenocarcinoma by 12.5 and 16 mo of age, respectively, with no occurrences in age-matched
## Abstract Mammary morphogenesis in the mouse is driven by specialized structures at the ends of the developing ducts, the terminal end buds (TEB). The mechanisms controlling the precise branching and spacing of the ducts are, as yet, unknown. To identify genes that are associated with migration o
