At the same time, however, it also poses a threat to people's privacy by offering a highly intimate window into their private traits (e.

Here, we investigated populations of mammary epithelial cells that are potential candidates for bovine mammary gland development using xenotransplantation into mice cleared mammary fat pad. Transplanted mammary explants from 17-month-old Holstein heifers developed outgrowths exhibiting the archetypal morphology and molecular marker distributions of the bovine gland.

- Psilocybin-assisted therapy shows promise in relieving existential distress for patients with serious illnesses, but access remains a challenge in palliative care settings in Canada despite recent legal changes.
- A study involving 16 palliative care professionals revealed their interest in the therapy, but also highlighted concerns such as the need for more education, research, refined protocols, and clarified eligibility criteria.
- The findings suggest that the acceptability of psilocybin therapy among healthcare providers is crucial for its successful integration into practice, indicating that developing clear guidelines could facilitate wider access and usage.

In sheep, the R96C mutation in suppressor of cytokine signaling 2 (SOCS2) protein is associated with greater milk production and increased mastitis sensitivity. To shed light on the involvement of R96C mutation in mammary gland development and lactation, we developed a mouse model carrying this mutation (SOCS2KI/KI).
