In utero hyperthermia impacts the histological and transcriptomic signature of the mammary fat pad of newborn heifers
Development of the mammary gland begins in utero and requires coordinated interactions between the epithelial rich parenchyma and the surrounding mammary fat pad (mFP). In this study we investigated how maternal heat stress (HS) during gestation impacts the development of the offspring mFP. Mammary fat pad tissue...
