Effect of hyperthyroidism on circulating prolactin and hypothalamic expression of tyrosine hydroxylase, prolactin signaling cascade members and estrogen and progesterone receptors during late pregnancy and lactation in the rat [PDF]

, 2017
Hyperthyroidism (HyperT) compromises pregnancy and lactation, hindering suckling-induced PRL release. We studied the effect of HyperT on hypothalamic mRNA (RT-qPCR) and protein (Western blot) expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), PRL receptor (PRLR ...

Prolactin enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for rhinoceroses – Another tool for assessing reproductive function and dysfunction in this taxon

Theriogenology Wild, 2023
For decades, progesterone and its metabolites have served as the primary biomarkers for monitoring reproductive activity in rhinoceroses, whereas protein hormones have received little attention despite their potential value in understanding reproductive ...

Prolactin and cancer: Has the orphan finally found a home?

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2012
Prolactin has, for long, been associated with galactorrhea and infertility in women while its role in men is largely unknown. Recently, expression of prolactin in various other tissues like the breast, prostate, decidua, and the brain has been recognized.

Stiff Collagen Matrices Increase Tumorigenic Prolactin Signaling in Breast Cancer Cells*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2013
Background: Prolactin, but not its best studied mediator STAT5a, is associated with breast cancer progression. Results: In stiff but not compliant collagen matrices, prolactin promotes tumorigenic processes via an enhanced ERK1/2 cascade.

Mutant prolactin receptor and familial hyperprolactinemia.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2013
Hyperprolactinemia that is not associated with gestation or the puerperium is usually due to tumors in the anterior pituitary gland and occurs occasionally in hereditary multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes. Here, we report data from three sisters with

Canine pseudopregnancy: an evaluation of prevalence and current treatment protocols in the UK [PDF]

, 2018
Background: There is a dearth of literature on pseudopregnancy in the bitch, with only a few treatment-based studies published since the 1990s. Pseudopregnancy may be under-recognised in bitches and may account for a proportion of behavioural cases ...

Confusion in the interpretation of prolactin levels caused by inappropriately low reference intervals

Endocrine Connections
Objective: Serum prolactin measurements are important in the differential diagnosis of pituitary masses and subfertility. We observed discrepancies in serum prolactin levels in several patients measured with different immunoassays. Despite differences in

Null mutation of the prolactin receptor gene produces multiple reproductive defects in the mouse.

Genes & Development, 1997
Mice carrying a germ-line null mutation of the prolactin receptor gene have been produced by gene targeting in embryonic stem cells. Heterozygous females showed almost complete failure of lactation attributable to greatly reduced mammary gland ...
