Abstract

See full text

Methods, agents, and compositions for promoting milk production in a mammal are provided. Agents useful for promoting milk production may include an agent that inhibits NOTCH4 activity. The agent may inhibit NOTCH4 activity by binding to ROBO2 and/or by binding to NOTCH4. The agent may inhibit NOTCH4 by competing with ROBO1 for binding to ROBO2, thereby making ROBO1 available to inhibit NOTCH4 activity. The agent may be a soluble ROBO1 extracellular domain or an anti-NOTCH4 antibody that inhibits NOTCH4 activity. The agent may be an RNAi construct that inhibits expression of NOTCH4 or an RNAi construct that inhibits expression of ROBO2. Also provided herein are transgenic mammals genetically modified for expression of a soluble ROBO1 extracellular domain; inhibition of expression of ROBO2; and/or inhibition of expression of NOTCH4. Methods for promoting milk production in such transgenic mammals by administering one or more of the agents disclosed herein are also provided.
