UFM1-Specific Ligase 1 Ligating Enzyme 1 Mediates Milk Protein and Fat Synthesis-Related Gene Expression via the JNK Signaling Pathway in Mouse Mammary Epithelial Cells

Figure 4

Deficiency of UFL1 does not affect morphology of the mammary gland. UFL1 KO mice in lactation were treated with tamoxifen, after 7 days, mammary tissues were collected. (a) Histologic observations of the mammary from UFL1 KO mice and WT mice.  μm. The body weight (b), mammary weight (c), and relative mammary weight were analyzed in units of g, g, and g/g. The relative mammary weight was measured by dividing the mammary weight by the body weight. Data were represented with by -test (). denotes significant differences ().
