Article Synopsis
- Mammary epithelial cells in sheep develop differently during pregnancy and lactation, with East FriEsian sheep known for high milk production compared to Sewa sheep, which has lower milk output.
- Researchers established mammary epithelial cell lines from both breeds and confirmed their identities through specific markers.
- RNA-seq analysis revealed significant differences in gene expression between the two breeds, highlighting 1813 differentially expressed genes and identifying ATF3 and MPP7 as key candidates for lactation regulation.
