The concept of Mammary gland in scientific sources
From: International Journal of Pharmacology
(1) Mammary glands are the milk-producing glands in female mammals, and studies have implicated that ZDHHC plays a significant role in the pathogenesis and advancement of malignancies originating in the mammary glands.[5] (2) Ethynodiol diacetate binds to the progesterone and estrogen receptors target cells include the female reproductive tract, this, the hypothalamus and the pituitary.[6] (3) Noni juice enhances differentiation of this and decreases the mammary cancer proliferation in MMTV-neu transgenic mice.[7] (4) To enhance local protective immune reactions at vulnerable sites such as this in dairy cattle or gastro intestinal tract in neonatal ruminants.[8] (5) These are the milk-producing glands located in the breast tissue.[9]
From: Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research
(1) This refers to the part of the cow's body where milk is produced, and the inflammation of this gland is the main characteristic of mastitis, according to the text.[10] (2) This term refers to the milk-producing organ in mammals, and an immunity study was conducted concerning the immunity of this organ in ruminants.[11] (3) These are the milk-producing glands of the sow, and they are examined for pathological changes, such as mastitis, alongside the urogenital organs in sows culled due to swine urogenital disease.[12]
From: Asian Journal of Pharmaceutics
(1) Baicalin promotes the bacteriostatic activity of lysozyme on S. aureus in these glands.[13] (2) Breast cancer primarily originates in the terminal ductal lobular units of this, where estrogen plays a significant role.[14]
From: International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (MDPI)
(1) This development during critical life stages is primarily influenced by estrogen, which stimulates proliferation of myoepithelial cells within ducts and induces growth and branching of mammary ducts.[15] (2) The milk-producing gland of female mammals. Hormones in milk originate from the blood flow and are secreted into the milk through an active transport within it. Some hormones can also be synthesized by it.[16] (3) Cancers of the mammary gland, uterine body, colon, and prostate are associated with obesity, which is considered an important prognostic factor for these conditions.[17] (4) A change in morphology (including duct thickness and branching) was observed after exposure to CPF (0.1 and 2.5 mg/kg/day) in adult female rats. At a dose of 0.01 mg/kg b.w./day, CPF administered to adult female rats increased the number of mammary ducts.[18] (5) The lowest substance concentrations have been noted in breast milk, which may suggest a relatively low penetration capacity from the blood to this.[19]
From: Sustainability Journal (MDPI)
(1) It is the milk-producing organ, and the increase in the milk lactose may be due to a parallel increase in the amount of glucose transport and uptake.[20]
From: South African Journal of Psychiatry
(1) An area where ER β exerts an antiproliferative action.[21]
