The mammary gland is a highly dynamic organ that undergoes profound changes within its
epithelium during puberty and the reproductive cycle. These changes are fueled by …

Examination of whole organs with subcellular resolution in health, disease, and during
development is necessary to decipher their biological complexity. However, until recently …

The mammary epithelium is indispensable for the continued survival of more than 5,000
mammalian species. For some, the volume of milk ejected in a single day exceeds their …

Maintenance of undifferentiated, long-lived, and often quiescent stem cells in the basal
compartment is important for homeostasis and regeneration of multiple epithelial tissues, but …

Embryonic mammary gland development involves the formation of mammary placodes,
invagination of flask-shaped mammary buds and development of miniature bi-layered ductal …

Mammary gland development begins in the embryo and continues throughout the
reproductive life of female mammals. Tissue macrophages (Mϕs), dependent on signals …

Life begins with calcium. It is the language that a sperm cell uses to respond to instructions
from the female reproductive tract to alter its swimming pattern and gain the force required to …

Despite rapid advances in our knowledge of the cellular heterogeneity and molecular
regulation of the mammary gland, how these relate to 3D cellular organization remains …

The ability of a mother to produce a nutritionally complete neonatal food source has
provided a powerful evolutionary advantage to mammals. Milk production by mammary …

Gpr125 is an orphan G-protein coupled receptor, with homology to cell adhesion and axonal
guidance factors, that is implicated in planar polarity and control of cell movements. By …
