Prepubertal Daidzein Exposure Enhances Mammary Gland Differentiation and Regulates the Expression of Estrogen Receptor-Alpha and Apoptotic Proteins

Figure 1

Effect of daidzein (500 μg/g bwt) on differentiation of mammary gland through count of TEBs, TDs, and lobules, in prepubertal female Sprague Dawley rats at PND21 and PND50. (a) All mounts of mammary glands. Mean percent change ± SEM in the count of (b) TEBs, (c) TDs, and (d) lobules, from 6 animals. *𝑃<0.05, **𝑃<0.01, ***𝑃<0.001, compared to the respective value in control group.
