An atlas of serpin conformations.

The serpins are a family of proteins that inhibit chymotrypsin-like serine proteinases, with an unusual mechanism involving a large conformational change known as the stressed-->relaxed (S-->R) transition. This article is a guide to the known serpin conformations and their biological significance.

Atlas and histologic classification of tumors of the rat mammary gland.

Studies performed in experimental animal models have demonstrated that mammary cancer is a complex multistep process that can be induced either by chemicals, radiation, viruses, or genetic factors. Rodent models have been useful for dissecting the initiation, promotion, and progression steps of mammary carcinogenesis. Chemically induced mammary tumors, such as those induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene and N-methyl-N-nitrosourea, are, in general, hormone-dependent adenocarcinomas whose incidence, number of tumors per animal, tumor latency, and tumor type are influenced by the age, reproductive history, and endocrinologic milieu of the host at the time of carcinogen exposure as well as by diet and the dose of carcinogen administered. There is a need to classify tumors according to their histopathological type because those characteristics have implications in the interpretation of experimental data. In the classification presented here we attempt to provide a working framework for diagnosis of the type of lesions found in the mammary glands of rats treated with chemical carcinogens or radiation and to clarify criteria for establishing the basic biological characteristics of tumors.

A developmental atlas of rat mammary gland histology.

The mammary gland is a dynamic tissue that undergoes epithelial expansion and invasion during puberty and cycles of branching and lobular morphogenesis, secretory differentiation, and regression during pregnancy, lactation, and involution. The alteration in the mammary gland epithelium during its postnatal differentiation is accompanied by changes in the multiple stromal cell types present in this complex tissue. The postnatal plasticity of the epithelium, endothelium, and stromal cells of the mammary gland may contribute to its susceptibility to carcinogenesis. The purpose of this review is to assist researchers in recognizing histological changes in the epithelium and stroma of the rat mammary gland throughout development.

An atlas of mouse mammary gland development.

The mouse mammary gland is a complex tissue, which is continually undergoing changes in structure and function. Embryonically, the gland begins with invasion of the underlying fat pad by a rudimentary ductal structure. Postnatal growth occurs in two phases: ductal growth and early alveolar development during estrous cycles, and cycles of proliferation, differentiation, and death that occur with each pregnancy, lactation, and involution. The variety of epithelial structures and stromal changes throughout the life of a mammary gland makes it a challenge to study. The purpose of this histological review is to give a brief representation of the morphological changes that occur throughout the cycle of mouse mammary gland development so that developmental changes observed in mouse models of mammary development can be appreciated.
