Lactation failure in Src knockout mice is due to impaired secretory activation

Harriet Watkin, Monica M Richert, Andrew Lewis, Kristina Terrell, James P McManaman, Steven M Anderson BMC Developmental Biology 2008, 8:6 (23 January 2008)

Mammary gland development in mice is dependent on essential signaling of the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases, with Src -/- mice exhibiting a block in secretory activation that results in lactation failure and precocious involution.
