“…Increasing levels of GH will increase the proliferation and differentiation of mammary myoepithelial cells, thereby increasing milk production (Ni, 2020). The effect of GH in increasing milk production acts through the somatotrophic axis by increasing insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) expression (Bao et al, 2016).…”

The objectives of the study were to evaluate the effect of ethanolic extract of P. indica Less leaf (EPI) on serum growth hormone (GH), milk yield, body weight gain of dams, and dam’s organ weight in lactating rats. A total of 25 lactating rats with six pups were randomized and distributed to one of five treatments (control (RO water), standard (domperidone 2,5 mg/kg BW/day), EPI 250 (250 mg/kg BW of EPI), EPI 500 (500 mg/kg BW of EPI), and EPI 750 (750 mg/kg BW of EPI)). The treatment was administered daily starting from the 2nd until the 15th day of lactation. On the 16th day serum growth hormone level, body and organ weight of rats were measured. Serum GH levels in the EPI 750 group (1963.25 ± 360.91 pg/µL) increased significantly compared to the domperidone (409.46 ± 28.80 pg/µL) and the control group (723.40 ± 95.78 pg/µL, p0.05). There was significant body weight gain in the EPI 750 group compared with the domperidone group. There was no significant difference in organ weight gain in each group. The study revealed that ethanolic extract of P. indica Less leaf can increase serum growth hormone in lactating rats.

“…In terms of neurophysiology, the neurohormonal stimuli generated by palpation and suction of the teat—or any other stimulus that a dam associates with milking—are governed by the somatic nerves of the central nervous system that pass through the spinal cord [ 106 ]. These signals reach the hypothalamus, which releases oxytocin, principally, though a whole cascade of hormones is involved, including vasopressin from the posterior lobe of the hypophysis [ 107 , 108 ], which travels through the bloodstream to the mammary gland. Oxytocin is directly responsible for the myoepithelial contraction that releases the milk from the lactiferous ducts into the cistern of the gland and, from there, to the teat or nipple where it is ingested by the infant [ 109 ].…”

The dams of gregarious animals must develop a close bond with their newborns to provide them with maternal care, including protection against predators, immunological transference, and nutrition. Even though lactation demands high energy expenditures, behaviors known as allonursing (the nursing of non-descendant infants) and allosuckling (suckling from any female other than the mother) have been reported in various species of wild or domestic, and terrestrial or aquatic animals. These behaviors seem to be elements of a multifactorial strategy, since reports suggest that they depend on the following: species, living conditions, social stability, and kinship relations, among other group factors. Despite their potential benefits, allonursing and allosuckling can place the health and welfare of both non-filial dams and alien offspring at risk, as it augments the probability of pathogen transmission. This review aims to analyze the biological and physiological foundations and bioenergetic costs of these behaviors, analyzing the individual and collective advantages and disadvantages for the dams’ own offspring(s) and alien neonate(s). We also include information on the animal species in which these behaviors occur and their implications on animal welfare.

Breast milk is considered the best form of nutrition for neonates and infants. The properties of breast milk facilitate the transition of life from in utero to ex utero. Breast milk provides a variety of bioactive substances for the developing baby during the early period of brain, immune and gut development. Katuk leaves (Sauropus androgni) are found very abundantly in Indonesia. People use S. androgyny as a traditional herbal medicine and are believed to have it to increase breast milk production. There are many publications that show the effect of lactagogum (an agent to increase milk production) of this plant. In several studies conducted there is evidence that the role of phytosterols and papaverine are two components that can increase the hormones prolactin and oxytocin. Scientific sources were obtained from Google Scholar and Pubmed in the form of textbooks and scientific journals totaling 24 units. Giving the extract resulted in a smoother circulation of the oxytocin hormone. The purpose of this literature review is to discuss the effect of S. androgynus which is believed to have a beneficial effect on breast milk production in and can be an agent of breast milk production in future research subjects.
