FBLN2 staining in TEB and ducts, respectively, from mammary gland sections from four 6-week old pubertal mice was semi-quantified using a combination of intensity score and percentage of structures stained according to the quickscore method [23], showing that FBLN2 expression was predominantly associated with TEB. At least 30 TEB and 75 ducts have been counted. The table shows the scores for each section
