Abstract excerpt

Although possible biological functions of whey acidic protein (WAP) have been suggested, few studies have focused on investigating the function of WAP. This paper describes evidence for WAP function in lobulo-alveolar development in mammary glands in vivo and in the cell cycle progression of mammary epithelial cells in vitro. Ubiquitous overexpression of WAP transgene impaired only lobulo-alveolar development in...
