mortality/aging
• nulliparous mice show a median tumor-free survival of 484 days, while biparous mice show a median tumor-free survival of 393 days

endocrine/exocrine glands
• increase in proliferation within the multilayered epithelia of the mammary ducts
• colony forming ability of the luminal progenitors is enhanced
|
• loss of polarity in the mammary gland epithelium
• the luminal cell population (Lin-CD29loCD24+) and luminal progenitors (Lin-CD29loCD24+CD61+) are increased in 6 week old mice
|
• mammary gland ducts are dilated at both 6 and 12 weeks of age and the majority at 12 weeks are enlarged and show areas of multilayered epithelium which is hyperplastic in some regions and shows presence of an eosinophilic luminal secretion
• 13 month old nulliparous and biparous mice show enlarged ducts, particularly in the nipple region of the biparous mice and small focal lesions
• mammary glands of aged mice have ectatic ducts filled with eosinophilic luminal secretions
|
• mice show increased secondary and tertiary branching at 12 weeks of age
|
• mice show increased number and size of invading mammary gland terminal end buds at 6 weeks
• increase in proliferation within the terminal end buds
|
• anaplasia of basal cells in the mammary gland
• colony forming ability of the stem cell enriched basal population is enhanced
|
• ducts are surrounded by an increase in the number of stromal cells
|
• nulliparous and biparous mice over 12 months of age develop mammary gland tumors, with tumor formation accelerated in biparous mice
• however, no metastasis is seen
|
• 45% of tumors are benign fibroadenomas
|
• 10% of mammary tumors are adenosquamous carcinomas
