We assessed mRNA expression levels by expression microarray of mouse mammary glands harvested throughout pregnancy and lactation.

To study the role of ErbB3 in mammary gland lactogenesis, we used transgenic mice expressing WAP-driven Cre recombinase to generate a mouse model in which conditional ErbB3 ablation occurred specifically in alveolar mammary epithelial cells (aMECs).
