reproductive system
• on day 16 of pregnancy, mammary glands of pregnant mice show only occasional and small units of secretion compared to wild-type mice; this becomes more striking by day 18 and at parturition
• mammary gland is disorganized, with poorly developed, condensed alveoli at parturition

endocrine/exocrine glands
• at day 2 of lactation, majority of lobulo-alveolar structures have collapsed, leaving clusters of epithelial cords with small lumina and extensive tissue remodeling
• on day 16 of pregnancy, mammary glands of pregnant mice show only occasional and small units of secretion compared to wild-type mice; this becomes more striking by day 18 and at parturition
• mammary gland is disorganized, with poorly developed, condensed alveoli at parturition
• expression of B-casein and whey acidic protein (WAP) re drastically reduced in mammary glands during lactation, indicating that gland is inefficient at producing milk proteins
• mutant mice cannot nurse their offspring due to mammary gland defects; 80% of offspring die within 24 hours and all die within 2-3 days of birth
