Popis: | Due to regulation by circadian rhythm, the lactation of the mammary gland has rhythmicity. As one of prominent members of period protein family which regulates biological rhythms, PER2 plays an important role in developing the milk duct and maintaining the polarity and the morphology of the mammary epithelium; at the same time, it is also closely related with the metabolism of milk protein and milk fat. This paper summarized recent researches on PER2 gene and related researches on mammary gland development and metabolism to provide some information for the studies of the theory and technology on physiological functions of the mammary gland and milk quality control. |
