(X20C.) A gradual increase in the epithelial elements of the gland by cell division is evident during the first part of pregnancy (Fig. 83). This increase reaches its peak at about the iith-i2th day, and results in the formation of alveoli. By the 14th to 15th day of pregnancy the alveolar system is well developed and mitosis is infrequent. Further development consists of an increase in size of the epithelial cells and an enlargement of the lumina of the ducts and alveoli. Secretor}' activity is established gradually, starting first in the alveoli proximal to the nipple and progressing distally. In the cytoplasm.
