Production of colostrum and milk in adequate quantities is essential for the survival of the young of most mammals. Preparation of the mammary gland for lactation takes place throughout fetal and post-natal life and results from many complex interactions. It involves the transformation of the gland from an epithelial anlagen in the fetus, through formation of a branched tubular structure to the fully developed lobulo-alveolar gland which has acquired the differentiated capacity to produce milk proteins, fat and sugar and, by milk ejection, to deliver these to the suckling. Mammary development has been reviewed extensively (see Cowie et al., 1980; Mepham, 1983; Knight, 1984; Tucker, 1987, for recent reviews and further references). The yield of the mammary gland is determined by numbers of epithelial cells and by their ability to transport, synthesize and secrete milk components. The balance between cell number and the secretory capacity of cells or alveolar units determines the shape of the lactation curve (Knight & Wilde, 1987). This is in part determined by systemic endocrine factors but it is increasingly evident that there is a large measure of local control.
