• between day 14.5 of pregnancy (P14.5) and P18.5, lobuloalveolar development was retarded, however milk protein expression is normal and females are able to nurse pups although pups weight 20% less during the first 10 days after birth
• decreased cell proliferation in P14.5 mammary glands and increased cell proliferation in lactating (L0.5) mammary glands, however did not observe any differences in apoptosis during pregnancy

|
|
• although secretory alveoli form, less space is occupied by epithelial structures and more space is occupied by fat compared to controls during pregnancy and throughout lactation indicating that alveolar lobes do not completely penetrate the mammary fat pad
