Estrogen implantation stimulates ductal elongation and site branching. (a) Whole mount analysis of the mammary tissues from the virgin wild-type (+/+) and SirT1ko/ko mice implanted with estrogen pellets (+E2) on day 14 and day 21. Scale bars = 200 μm. (b) Western blot analysis of the expression of insulin-like growth factor-1 binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) and IκBα, with actin as a loading control, in mammary tissues from the virgin wild-type (+/+) and SirT1ko/ko mice implanted with estrogen pellets on day 21.
