Hyperprolactinemia induced by hCG leads to metabolic disturbances in female mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The metabolic syndrome is a growing epidemic; it increases the risk for diabetes, cardiovascular disease, fatty liver, and several cancers. Several reports have indicated a link between hormonal imbalances and insulin resistance or obesity.

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

open access: yes, 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 ...

TRH: Pathophysiologic and clinical implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Thyrotropin releasing hormone is thought to be a tonic stimulator of the pituitary TSH secretion regulating the setpoint of the thyrotrophs to the suppressive effect of thyroid hormones. The peptide stimulates the release of normal and elevated prolactin.
