endocrine/exocrine glands
• mammary glands show a reduction in lipid droplets and alveolar tissues
• mammary glands of 6 and 10 week old mice show precocious alveolar differentiation, resembling glands in early pregnancy
• mice exhibit a smaller population of CD24+CD29high mammary stem cells
• size of the Lgr5+ stem cell subpopulation is reduced in mammary glands
• the number of proliferating cells is decreased in alveoli at 14.5 dpc
• mammary glands at mid-pregnancy (E14.5) show enhanced alveogenesis, presented as overt luminal feature and an increased number of intracellular lipid droplets and higher beta-casein expression
• the alveoli fail to fully develop in homozygous mothers at both 18.5 dpc and lactation day 2
• reduction in the number of proliferating cells is seen in the terminal end buds of 6 week old dox-treated mice
• mammary glands of 6 and 10 week old mice show precocious alveolar differentiation, resembling glands in early pregnancy
• the alveoli fail to fully develop in homozygous mothers at both 18.5 dpc and lactation day 2
• the number of proliferating cells is decreased in alveoli at 14.5 dpc
• reduction in the number of proliferating cells is seen in the terminal end buds of 6 week old dox-treated mice
• milk content is decreased in glands
• pups nursed by homozygous mothers have less milk in their stomachs at lactation day 2
• by weaning, survival rates of pups from homozygous females is lower than those of wild-type mothers

mortality/aging
• overall survival time is longer than in single Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul transgenic mice with mice showing a higher metastasis-free survival rate

neoplasm
• development of primary mammary lesions is suppressed at 12 and 16 weeks of age compared to single Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul transgenic mice
• tumors do not show malignant features and appear more like benign adenomas
• the number of proliferating cells is much lower in tumors
• marker analysis indicates a basal-to-luminal cell fate change in mammary tumor cells
• reduction in the percentage of the CD24+CD90+ cancer stem cell population in mammary tumors compared to Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul tumors
• limiting-dilution transplantation assays indicate that tumor cells show an approximate 13-fold decrease in tumor-initiating ability
• mice show a reduction in metastatic foci in lungs compared to single Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul transgenic mice
• mice show a higher metastasis-free survival rate compared to single Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul transgenic mice
• at 20 weeks of age, mammary gland tumors are much smaller than in single Tg(MMTV-PyVT)634Mul transgenic mice
