Abstract: | In a meritorious effort H. de Rothschild compiled in 1899 all publications on mammary gland development and milk – a grand total of 8375 [1]. In the preface to this publication Duclaux states: ‘Such a discrepancy between the tremendous efforts and the paltriness of the results – hundreds of scientists and thousands of research years, just to create 200 or 300 pages of truth’. The number of papers added since then must be enormous. Rather than reviewing a vast literature, I will take the liberty and focus on research which, in my opinion, shaped our understanding of hormone controlled gene expression in the developing breast. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date. |
