Abstract
Milk-secreting epithelial cells of the mammary gland are functionally specialized for the synthesis and secretion of large quantities of neutral lipids, a major macronutrient in milk from most mammals. Milk lipid synthesis and secretion are hormonally regulated and secretion occurs by a unique apocrine mechanism. Neutral lipids are synthesized and packaged into perilipin-2 (PLIN2) coated cytoplasmic lipid droplets within specialized cisternal domains of rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Continued lipid synthesis by ER membrane enzymes and lipid droplet fusion contribute to the large size of these cytoplasmic lipid droplets (5–15 μm in diameter). Lipid droplets are directionally trafficked within the epithelial cell to the apical plasma membrane. Upon contact, a molecular docking complex assembles to tether the droplet to the plasma membrane and facilitate its membrane envelopment. This docking complex consists of the transmembrane protein, butyrophilin, the cytoplasmic housekeeping protein, xanthine dehydrogenase/oxidoreductase, the lipid droplet coat proteins, PLIN2, and cell death-inducing DFFA-like effector A. Interactions of mitochondria, Golgi, and secretory vesicles with docked lipid droplets have also been reported and may supply membrane phospholipids, energy, or scaffold cytoskeleton for apocrine secretion of the lipid droplet. Final secretion of lipid droplets into the milk occurs in response to oxytocin-stimulated contraction of myoepithelial cells that surround milk-secreting epithelial cells. The mechanistic details of lipid droplet release are unknown at this time. The final secreted milk fat globule consists of a triglyceride core coated with a phospholipid monolayer and various coat proteins, fully encased in a membrane bilayer.

Abstract
Lipid droplets (LD) are dynamically-regulated organelles that originate from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), and function in the storage, trafficking and metabolism of neutral lipids. In mammary epithelial cells (MEC) of lactating animals, intact LD are secreted intact into milk to form milk lipids by a novel apocrine mechanism. The secretion of intact LD and the relatively large amounts of lipid secreted by lactating MEC increase demands on the cellular processes responsible for lipid synthesis and LD formation. As yet these processes are poorly defined due to limited understanding of LD-ER interactions. To overcome these limitations, we used rapid-freezing and freeze-substitution methods in conjunction with 3D electron tomography and high resolution immunolocalization to define interactions between LD with ER in MEC of pregnant and lactating rats. Using these approaches, we identified distinct ER domains that contribute to lipid droplet formation and stabilization and which possess unique features previously unrecognized or not fully appreciated. Our results show nascent lipid droplets within the ER lumen and the association of both forming and mature droplets with structurally unique regions of ER cisternae, characterized by the presence of perilipin-2, a protein implicated in lipid droplet formation, and enzymes involved in lipid synthesis. These data demonstrate that milk lipids originate from LD-ER domains with novel structural features and suggest a mechanism for initial droplet formation in the ER lumen and subsequent maturation of the droplets in association with ER cisternae.

Effect of low dose bisphenol A on the early differentiation of human embryonic stem cells into mammary epithelial cells. Toxicol Lett 2013; 218:187-93.

Abstract
It has been previously reported that bisphenol A (BPA) can disturb the development of mammary structure and increase the risk of breast cancer in experimental animals. In this study, an in vitro model of human embryonic stem cell (hESC) differentiation into mammary epithelial cells was applied to investigate the effect of low dose BPA on the early stages of mammogenesis. A newly established hESC line was directionally differentiated into mammary epithelial cells by a well-established three-dimensional (3D) culture system. The differentiated mammary epithelial cells were characterized by immunofluorescence and western blotting assay, and were called induced differentiated mammary epithelial cells (iDMECs) based on these data. The hESCs were treated with low doses of BPA range 10(-9)-10(-6)M during the differentiation process, with DMSO as the solvent control and 17-β-estrodiol (E2) as the estrogen-positive control. Our results showed that low dose BPA and E2 could influence the mammosphere area of iDMECs and upregulate the expression level of Oct4 and Nanog proteins, while only BPA could downregulate the expression of E-cadherin protein. Taken together, this study provides some insights into the effects of low dose BPA on the early differentiation stage of mammary epithelial cells and suggests an easier canceration status of iDMECs under the effect of low dose BPA during its early differentiation stage.

Abstract
Recent research suggests that a small percentage of milk proteins may be secreted basolaterally, which would have implications for our work on the permeability of tight junctions in the mammary epithelium. In our work, the presence of alpha-lactalbumin (LA) or lactose in plasma is used as an indicator of permeability. The aim of this study was to examine basolateral secretion by determining the presence of milk proteins in efferent mammary lymph. Five Saanen goats were fitted with mammary lymph catheters and were administered intramammary isosmotic bolus infusions of sucrose control solutions or ethylene glycolbis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid to induce leaky tight junctions. Lymph samples were collected before and approximately 5 h after infusion. Lymph was analyzed by Western blotting for the presence of alpha-casein (CN), beta-CN, and alpha-LA No alpha-CN or beta-CN was detected in lymph, but alpha-LA was detected in all lymph samples. Moreover, the signal was much stronger in samples from goats that were treated with ethylene glycol-bis(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid, and concentrations of alpha-LA in lymph were significantly increased with this treatment. These changes and the absence of casein in lymph suggest increased permeability of tight junctions rather than basolateral secretion. In summary, these data do not support basolateral secretion.

Abstract
The ganglioside content of goat milk has been determined from d 1 after parturition to d 60 of lactation. Marked changes occurred in milk over the course of lactation; the highest ganglioside content occurred in d-1 colostrum and then decreased to the end of the period studied. At least seven different ganglioside species were detected; three gangliosides containing sialyllactosylceramide accounted for 66 to 92% of the total lipid-bound sialic acid; this result reflected a very simple core structure of goat milk gangliosides. The most abundant ganglioside, II3(N-acetylneuraminic acid)2-lactosylceramide, was about 35 to 56%. The sialic acid content exhibited a trend similar to that of gangliosides; during early lactation sialic acid content was higher than in mature milk. Fat, protein, and total solids were high at initiation of lactation and decreased thereafter. However, lactose content remained almost unchanged during the period studied.

Abstract
Bovine milk undergoes changes in its ganglioside contents during the different stages of lactation. These contents are higher in colostrum (7.5 mg of lipid-bound NeuAc/kg) than in transitional (2.3 mg) or mature (1.4 mg) milk. The sialic acid content of milk follows a similar profile to that of gangliosides with the highest content during the first few days post partum followed by a gradual decrease towards the end of the period studied. When the individual distribution of gangliosides was examined throughout the course of lactation, several changes were also found. GD3 is the major ganglioside (about 60-70%) found; its content decreases from the first to the fifth day, increasing towards the end of the period considered. GM3, GD3 and GT3, sialyllactosylceramide-containing gangliosides account for 80-90% of the total lipid-bound NeuAc content. The most striking change in the ganglioside pattern was the gradual increase in G3.

Abstract
Bovine milk contains about 3.5 to 5% total lipid, existing as emulsified globules 2 to 4 microns in diameter and coated with a membrane derived from the secreting cell. In homogenized milk, the coat is mostly casein. About 98% or more of the lipid is triacylglycerol, which is found in the globule. Phospholipids are about .5 to 1% of total lipids, and sterols are .2 to .5%. These are mostly located in the globule membrane. Cholesterol is the major sterol at 10 to 20 mg/dl. Data are presented on the membrane and the emulsion. Bovine milk contains substantial quantities of C4:0 to C10:0, about 2% each of C18:2 and trans-C18:1, and almost no other long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids. The fatty acid composition is not altered by ordinary changes in diet. The triacylglycerol structure is unique, with much of the C4:0 to C10:0 at sn-3. The effects of milk cholesterol and fatty acids on human blood cholesterol levels and nonnutritive roles of some microlipids are discussed.

Abstract
In milk and blood plasma samples of 6 German Simmental and 12 German Black and White heifers it was investigated, whether purine and pyrimidine compounds are suitable indicators of the microbial protein synthesis in the rumen. Therefore the secreted quantities in milk and the concentration in blood plasma are correlated with energy intake. The results indicated significant correlation coefficients for both the secretion quantity of allantoin in milk (r = 0.942) and the concentration of allantoin in blood plasma (r = 0.694). Other investigated compounds appeared more suitable for evaluating the mammary gland metabolism (uridine-lactose synthesis, pseudouridine-protein synthesis). In an experiment with 7 male castrated pigmy goats subjected to a four-day fasting period the decrease of plasma allantoin, which was already apparent after 12 hours of fasting, was closely correlated with the increase of plasma free fatty acids.

Abstract
Milk composition depends on inheritance, stage of lactation, age, infection, and diet. Fat is the most variable component of milk, and its concentration depends on the supply of acetate, butyrate, and performed fatty acids to the mammary gland. This supply depends on diet and competition among organs. Adequate, effective fiber is the critical dietary consideration.

Abstract
Casein and lactose concentrations in milks of various species vary by at least 1-2 orders of magnitude, yet no single species secretes both components at either the high or the low end of the ranges. This pattern of variation could result from evolutionary adaptations in a single secretory mechanism.
