abstract：:Progestins have been implicated in breast cancer development, yet a role for progesterone (Pg) in ductal morphogenesis (DM) has not been established. To determine whether Pg could cause DM, we compared relative effects of Pg, estradiol (E2) and IGF-I on anatomical and molecular biological parameters of IGF-I-related D...
