Abstract

A galactopoietic compound, identified as dibutyl phthalate (DBP), was isolated from Vaccaria segetalis. The activity of DBP on lactation ability of dairy cow mammary gland epithelial cells (DCMECs) cultured in vitro and dairy cow was evaluated. Results showed that DBP could promote cell viability, proliferation ability, lactose and β-casein secretion of DCMECs, which could also raise the milk yields of dairy cows significantly.
