BMC Endocrine Disorders, 2021 Background Macroprolactin is responsible for pseudohyperprolactinemia and is a common pitfall of the prolactin immunoassay. We aimed to determine the frequency of macroprolactinemia in Chinese hyperprolactinemic patients using monomeric prolactin ...

Relationship between Prolactin, Chronic Kidney Disease, and Cardiovascular Risk
International Journal of Endocrinology, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 CKD has a high prevalence worldwide, mainly due to its main etiologies—diabetes and hypertension. It has high cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, with traditional risk factors such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and left ventricular hypertrophy being common.

Dubai Diabetes and Endocrinology Journal, 2021 Objectives: Macroprolactin (macroPRL) excess is an important cause of hyperprolactinemia. Several prolactin assays have high reactivity to macroPRL. However, macroPRL screening is not routinely performed in many labs.

Contemporary approaches to the diagnosis of hyperprolactinemia
Репродуктивная эндокринология, 2019 Hyperprolactinemia (HP) is a persistent prolactin increase in serum. HP is a common endocrinopathy that impairs reproductive function, long term HP may lead to the metabolic disorders and a decrease in bone mineral density.

Abnormally Elevated Follicle‐Stimulating Hormone (FSH) Level in an Infertile Woman
Case Reports in Endocrinology, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019 We report a case of 33‐year‐old woman with a 4‐year primary infertility. A high isolated follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) level was conflicting with the clinical situation and with other hormonal markers which were in favor of polycystic ovarian syndrome. We followed a strategy used to identify immune complexes involving FSH.

Stress‐Induced Hyperprolactinemia: Pathophysiology and Clinical Approach
Obstetrics and Gynecology International, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018 While prolactin is most well known for its role in lactation and suppression of reproduction, its physiological functions are quite diverse. There are many etiologies of hyperprolactinemia, including physiologic as well as pathologic causes. Physiologic causes include pregnancy, lactation, sleep‐associated, nipple stimulation and sexual orgasm, chest ...

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 697-700, September 2017., 2017 This study is the first to demonstrate the observation for the hypothesis that higher prolactin levels are associated with glucose intolerance during pregnancy. Prolactin has metabolic impacts beyond lactation. We propose that high levels of prolactin may contribute to pregnancy‐induced hyperglycaemia similar to its effects in prolactinoma. Abstract It

Case Reports in Nephrology, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017 A female hemodialysis patient with galactorrhea due to hyperprolactinemia was treated with different dialysis modalities to assess the effect on prolactin levels. A single session of both high‐flux hemodialysis and hemodiafiltration resulted in decreased prolactin levels (16,6% and 77,2%, resp.).

Oncogenic driver and therapeutic target: Prolactin signalling axis in retroperitoneal sarcoma
Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.Retroperitoneal sarcoma cells can secrete prolactin into the bloodstream, inducing hyperprolactinaemia, which subsequently triggers metabolic reprogramming, such as glucose metabolism. SOX4 can function as a transcription factor that facilitates PRL transcription.
