Corticotroph Tumour Type Influences Clinical Behaviour in Patients With Nonfunctioning Pituitary Neuroendocrine Tumours. [PDF]

Endocrinol Diabetes Metab
Harbouring a silent corticotroph tumour (SCT) compared to a silent gonadotroph tumour, being older at surgery and having a larger preoperative tumour were found to increase the likelihood of having postoperative pituitary failure in logistic regression analysis (n = 77).

Prolactin and vitiligo: proposed autocrine/paracrine actions

Journal of the Egyptian Women’s Dermatologic Society, 2021
Background The exact cause of vitiligo remains unclear. Several theories have been proposed, including autoimmune and neuroendocrine theories. Prolactin has been studied as an immunomodulatory factor in several autoimmune diseases.

Prolactin delays hair regrowth in mice [PDF]

, 2006
Mammalian hair growth is cyclic, with hair-producing follicles alternating between active (anagen) and quiescent (telogen) phases. The timing of hair cycles is advanced in prolactin receptor (PRLR) knockout mice, suggesting that prolactin has a role in ...

Elevated Prolactin during Pregnancy Drives a Phenotypic Switch in Mouse Hypothalamic Dopaminergic Neurons

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: Altered physiological states require neuronal adaptation. In late pregnancy and lactation, a sub-population of the mouse hypothalamic tuberoinfundibular dopaminergic (TIDA) neurons alters their behavior to synthesize and release met-enkephalin ...

Prolactin and its receptor as therapeutic targets in glioblastoma multiforme [PDF]

, 2019
Although prolactin (PRL) and its receptor (PRLR) have been detected in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), their role in its pathogenesis remains unclear. Our aim was to explore their contribution in GBM pathogenesis.

Prolactin actions [PDF]

Journal of Molecular Endocrinology, 2013
Molecular genetics and other contemporary approaches have contributed to a better understanding of prolactin (PRL) actions at the cellular and organismal levels. In this review, several advances in knowledge of PRL actions are highlighted. Special emphasis is paid to areas of progress with consequences for understanding of human PRL actions.

Factors associated with the level of prolactin in patients under remission from Alcohol Use Disorder: A gender perspective

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, 2021
Background Prolactin mirrors the dopaminergic activity in the brain which is key to understanding alcohol use disorders (AUD). Still, patients with AUD are a heterogenous group and there seem to be gender differences in the relationship between alcohol ...

Prolactin and Autoimmunity [PDF]

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
The great asymmetry of autoimmune diseases between genders represents one of the most enigmatic observations among the mosaic of autoimmunity. Sex hormones are believed to play a crucial role on this dimorphism. The higher prevalence of autoimmunity among women at childbearing ages, disease onset/relapses during pregnancy, and post-partum are some of ...
