Assessment of Macroprolactin Persistence in a Large Clinical Population

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 2019
Pathologic causes of hyperprolactinemia include prolactin-secreting pituitary adenoma (prolactinoma), diseases of the hypothalamus, primary hypothyroidism, and renal failure.

Characterization of macroprolactin and assessment of markers of autoimmunity in macroprolactinaemic patients

Clinical Endocrinology, 2009
SummaryObjective  It has been reported that macroprolactin is a complex of PRL and an immunoglobulin G (IgG). This study further characterizes macroprolactin and evaluates for other markers of autoimmunity using a cohort of macroprolactinaemic sera.Patients and normal subjects  Following treatment of hyperprolactinaemic sera (n = 58) with polyethylene ...

[Macroprolactin detection: a new approach].

Annales de biologie clinique, 2001
Macroprolactin is a complex of prolactin with immunoglobulins (IgG) that has limited or no biological activity in vivo. Immunoassays for prolactin have variable reactivity with macroprolactin. Therefore the presence of macroprolactin should be considered in the differential diagnosis of hyperprolactinemia.

Prevalence of macroprolactin detected by Elecsys 2010.

Hormone research, 2002
Macroprolactin or big-big PRL is, usually, a complex of little prolactin (PRL) with anti-PRL autoantibody. There are some patients with hyperprolactinemia showing a high proportion of serum macroprolactin. However, its clinical significance is not clear. Immunoassays used to determine PRL differ in their ability to detect macroprolactin.
