In addition to its proposed function in regulating serum IgG levels, the MHC class I-related neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) is known to play a role in IgG transfer across rodent yolk sac and neonatal intestine. In contrast to humans, for which transplacental transfer of IgG appears to be the only mecha

The CCAAT/enhancer binding proteins (C/EBPs) are a highly conserved family of DNA binding proteins implicated in the transcriptional control of genes involved in cell growth and differentiation in a variety of tissues. The expression of C/EBPa, b, and d mRNA in the normal mouse mammary gland was inv
## Abstract The frequent use of some rare earths in the medical and industrial domains make us worry about their intracellular behavior into the body. Reason for which we have investigated the subcellular localization of one of these elements, the samarium, in the mammary gland of lactating female
Amino acid incorporation experiments show that epithelial cells from lactating mouse mammary glands and from collagen gel culture both synthesize and secrete four principal phosphocaseins (p45, p40, p27, and p23 kD). In both cases, however, t h e casein production is largely dominated by the p27 spe
Gap junctional communication plays a vital role in embryogenesis, cell differentiation and the co-ordination of tissue responses. Gap junctions are formed by a family of closely-related proteins called connexins which show tissue-specific patterns of expression. The role of gap junctions in the mamm
## Abstract We have previously described pluripotent, parityβinduced mammary epithelial cells (PIβMEC) marked by Rosa26βlacZ expression in the mammary glands of parous females. PIβMEC act as lobuleβlimited epithelial stem/progenitor cells. To determine whether parity is necessary to generate PIβMEC
