	abstract = {In dairy animals, the development and secretory activity of each  mammary gland in the udder is regulated independently by local  mechanisms sensitive to the frequency and efficiency of milk removal.  Acute regulation of milk secretion occurs through autocrine inhibition  by a secreted milk constituent, which may act by modulating the  sensitivity of the tissue to circulating hormones. Sustained changes in  milking frequency or efficiency are associated with modulation of  secretory cell differentiation and, ultimately, the number of secretory  cells. Elucidation of these local intra-mammary mechanisms offers the  prospect of controlling milk secretion in a novel and more specific  manner than has hitherto been possible.  },
