Abstract
Protein and plasminogen activator (PA) production by bovine mammary epithelial cells cultured on inserts and the effect of calcium were studied. The cells cultured on inserts coated with a bovine extracellular matrix established a stable trans-epithelial resistance, and secreted apically αs1-casein and PA. Extracellular calcium increased (P < 0.01) αs1-casein and total proteins, but not PA activity. Key words: Bovine mammary epithelial cells, inserts, differentiation
