Progesterone receptor (PGR) expression as a marker for estrogen activity in the mammary tissue of cynomolgus macaques fed a high-soy (SOY) or casein-lactalbumin (CL) diet across the pubertal transition. A: mRNA expression of PGR decreased after menarche. B: Protein expression of PGR in the immature lobules of the breast was lower in the SOY group after menarche. C: Immunolocalization of PGR in the breast was similar before (pre) and after (post) menarche and not affected by diet. Values are presented as LSM and error bars=SEM. a Fold-change from CL at 1-6 months after menarche. The significant main effect is indicated in each panel. Body weight and cycle stage were included in the model as covariates.
