| It is produced in the cytoplasm of lactiferous cells along with amino acids, phospholipids, carbohydrates, and proteins. |
|
| These manufacture the milk which is then channelled through lactiferous ducts towards the nipple. |
|
| Chicory is mildly bitter in taste, and all of the plant's parts are lactiferous. |
|
| The ducts are somewhat larger just behind the nipple where they form lactiferous ampulla which accumulate breast milk during and just prior to breast feeding. |
|
| However, if the implant is placed on top of the pectoral muscle, it can exert pressure on the lactiferous ducts and glands, which will reduce lactation. |
|
| Milk travels from the alveoli, via ductules, into the lactiferous ducts that open on to the surface of the nipple. |
|
| Microscopically, the nipple adenoma exhibits epithelial hyperplasia arising from a lactiferous duct displacing the nipple stroma. |
|
| Papillomas typically occur in major lactiferous ducts and develop within the wall of the duct. |
|
| The initial thickenings proliferate inward and produce a system of ramified cords, solid at first but hollowed out later, which become the lactiferous, or milk-bearing, ducts of the gland. |
|
| The glands that produce milk that are connected to the surface of the breast by the lactiferous ducts may extend to the armpit area. |
