[Preliminary findings concerning the in vitro effect of estradiol on differentiation of mammary glands in rabbit embryos]
Abstract
The mammary buds of rabbit embryos between 18 and 24 days of age were ultrastructurally studied after being cultivated in synthetic liquid medium. The response to estradiol involves an increase in lipid synthesis and the occasional appearance of malformations.
