Secretion and Function of Pituitary Prolactin in Evolutionary Perspective

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
The hypothalamo-pituitary system developed in early vertebrates. Prolactin is an ancient vertebrate hormone released from the pituitary that exerts particularly diverse functions.

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.

Heat shock protein-90-alpha, a prolactin-STAT5 target gene identified in breast cancer cells, is involved in apoptosis regulation [PDF]

, 2008
Introduction The prolactin-Janus-kinase-2-signal transducer and activator of transcription-5 (JAK2-STAT5) pathway is essential for the development and functional differentiation of the mammary gland.

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 ...

Mirtazapine decreases stimulatory effects of reboxetine on cortisol, adrenocorticotropin and prolactin secretion in healthy male subjects [PDF]

, 2004
Reboxetine is a selective noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, whereas mirtazapine acts as an antagonist at noradrenergic alpha(2), serotonin (5-HT2), 5-HT3 and histamine H-1 receptors.

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 ...

Dynamic analysis of stochastic transcription cycles [PDF]

, 2011
In individual mammalian cells the expression of some genes such as prolactin is highly variable over time and has been suggested to occur in stochastic pulses.

Prolactin and the Effect of Octreotide Acetate, a Long Acting Somatostatin Analogue, on Prolactin Secretion

Endocrinology Research and Practice, 2022
Trauma of the head causes important changes in serum prolactin levels. Usually somatostatin has an inhibitory effect on the hormones. We do not know much about the effect of somatostatin on prolactin secretion.

Effect of prolactin on casein synthesis of bovine mammary epithelial cells

Siliao yanjiu, 2021
The experiment studied the effect of prolactin on milk protein synthesis of bovine mammary epithelial cells (BMECs). The healthy breast tissue of Holstein cows was selected as the experimental material, BMECs were isolated, cultured and purified, and the
