Project description:Mammary gland development: cross-species analysis of the mammary gland transcriptome in pregnant or lactating wild type female Sprague Dawley rats.
Project description:Male Sprague-Dawley rats were used to establish exhausted-exercise model by motorized rodent treadmill. Yu-Ping-Feng-San at doses of 2.18 g/kg was administrated by gavage before exercise training for 10 consecutive days. Quantitative proteomics was performed for assessing the related mechanism of Yu-Ping-Feng-San.
Project description:Early full-term pregnancy affords lifetime protection against development of breast cancer. Parity-induced protection can be reproduced in a carcinogen-induced rat mammary carcinoma model. The molecular mechanisms of parity-induced protection against carcinogenic stimuli in rat mammary glands have not been fully characterized. In order to gain a better understanding of these molecular mechanisms, we performed gene expression analyses in parous and age-matched virgin (AMV) mammary glands of Lewis rats before and after carcinogen (N-methyl-N-nitrosourea; MNU) treatment.
