The mammary gland, composed of lobules and ducts, is located in the chest. Its primary function is to produce and secrete milk to nourish infants during lactation. The mammary gland develops during puberty and pregnancy, with milk production regulated by hormones. Mammary health is crucial for overall female health, as abnormalities can indicate diseases such as breast cancer.
Human Mammary Duct Epithelial Cells (HMDECs) are used extensively in breast cancer research, drug development, and toxicology studies. They help in understanding the molecular mechanisms of cancer progression, identifying potential therapeutic targets, and assessing the efficacy and safety of new drugs. Additionally, HMDECs are valuable for studying normal breast tissue biology and hormonal regulation, providing insights into breast health and disease.
When culturing Human Mammary Duct Epithelial Cells in vitro, it is crucial to maintain sterile conditions to prevent contamination, provide appropriate growth media with necessary supplements, and regulate temperature, humidity, and CO2 levels. It is also essential to monitor cell confluence regularly and avoid overgrowth, which can lead to cellular stress and phenotypic changes. Proper handling and gentle passaging techniques are vital to preserve cell integrity and functionality.
