Development of the mammary gland during puberty, pregnancy, and lactation is controlled by steroid and peptide hormones and growth factors. To determine the role of the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) in this process we developed a transgenic model using the whey acidic protein (WAP) gene to direct expression of rat IGF-I and human IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) to mammary tissue during late pregnancy and throughout lactation. High levels of expression of transgenic IGF-I and IGFBP-3 were…

It is demonstrated that IGFBP-5, although not essential for normal growth, is required for normal mammary gland involution and can regulate Mammary gland morphogenesis in response to hormone stimulation.

It is hypothesize that IGF-I partially mediates actions of GH in mammary gland development and causes ductal hypertrophy in the lactating mouse and prevention of post-lactational mammary glands involution.

The data suggest that loss of Igfpb7 induces precocious involution possibly through diminished cell survival signals, and identifies Igfbp7 as major regulator of involution in the mammary gland.

This is the first demonstration that over-expression of IGFBP-5 can lead to impaired mammary development, increased expression of the pro-apoptotic molecule caspase-3, increased plasmin generation and decreased expression of pro-survival molecules of the Bcl-2 family.
