Overexpression of ovine insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in the mammary glands of transgenic mice

Evidence indicates that the mammary gland may contribute to its own development by the production of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). To generate a model for investigation of the effects of enhanced IGF-I synthesis in the mammary gland, six transgenic founder mice were produced by microinjectio...
