Functional and gene network analyses of transcriptional signatures characterizing pre-weaned bovine mammary parenchyma or fat pad uncovered novel inter-tissue signaling networks during development

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The neonatal bovine mammary fat pad (<b>MFP</b>) surrounding the mammary parenchyma (<b>PAR</b>) is thought to exert proliferative effects on the PAR through secretion of local modulators of growth induced by...
