Nutritionally-directed compensatory growth enhances mammary development and lactation potential in rats.
A nutritionally-regulated compensatory growth regimen imposed during a growing period from prepuberty to gestation can significantly affect mammary development and subsequent lactation performance. The objectives of this study were as follows: 1) to determine whether a compensatory nutrition regimen enhances lactation potential for the first and second lactation cycles and 2) to determine the e...
متن کاملEffects of Controlled Compensatory Growth on Mammary Gland Development and Lactation in Rats
The objective of this study was to examine the effect of compensatory growth nutritional regimen on mammary gland growth and lactation. One hundred twenty-two Sprague Dawley female rats (35 days of age) were randomly assigned to either a control or a stair-step compensatory nutrition (SSCN) feeding regimen or an alternating 2-2-3-3-week schedule beginning with 40% energy restriction for 2 weeks...
متن کاملCompensatory mammary growth following protein restriction during pregnancy and lactation increases early-onset mammary tumor incidence in rats.
Breast cancer incidence is increased in women with both high and low birth weight. The latter is also associated with hyperglycaemia, insulin resistance and type-2 diabetes, each of which independently increases breast cancer risk. We showed previously in our model of poor early-growth that pregnancy estradiol levels were raised while offspring developed type-2 diabetes. We hypothesized that nu...
متن کاملRole of compensatory mammary growth in epigenetic control of gene expression.
To better understand the role of nutrition in regulating mammary gland development and lactation, we designed a novel stair-step compensatory nutrition regimen that is a unique combination of dietary energy restriction and realimentation (refeeding) phases; the basic concept of this regimen is to exploit the biological nature of the compensatory growth phenomenon in concert with one or more hor...
متن کاملGrowth and Development: ADSA - Mammary Development - The Role of Progenitor Cells and Nutritional Modulation on Lactation
Taste is the number one reason for selecting food, but interest in nutritional content and special health benefits is also important. Consumers respond positively to the taste of many dairy products, but perceptions of health benefits are not as positive as they could be, perhaps because of the strong association of dairy with high fat. An increasing number of consumers are aware that food can ...
