Abstract
IT is well established that milk is synthesized in the secretory epithelium of the mammary gland from precursor substances, and that this complicated process is regulated by the central nervous system and by the endocrine glands. In recent years some new observations have been made in this laboratory regarding milk secretion which may offer an important contribution to the present-day concepts. These observations arise from experiments which we1–3 have been conducting since 1954 on lactating goats.
