%X This paper will emphasize the impact of growth and lactation on partitioning nutrients, the role of biological signals and whether such signals can be influenced or modified. Factors considered are the mechanisms of controlling cell cycling, growth and differentiation; interaction or cross-talking between tissues (autocrinepeptides, tissue receptors, secondary messengers); effect of extrinsic and intrinsic signals on cellular growth (growth hormones, oncogenes); and manipulation of nutrient partitioning (mutated receptors, gene expression, targeting metabolic genes).
