IGF-2 Is a Mediator of Prolactin-Induced Morphogenesis in the Breast

The mechanisms by which prolactin controls proliferation of mammary epithelial cells (MECs) and morphogenesis of the breast epithelium are poorly understood. We show that cyclin D1 −/− MECs fail to proliferate in response to prolactin and identify IGF-2 as a downstream target of prolactin signaling...
