Regulation of the pulmonary circulation [PDF]
Heart, 1971 Factors regulating pressure and flow in the lungs are reviewed with particular emphasis on their role in regulating blood flow velocity and distribution within the lung capillaries. The behaviour of the pulmonary arterial, system, alveolar capillaries, and pulmonary venous system are considered individually.

The role of prolactin/vasoinhibins in cardiovascular diseases
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, 2023 Prolactin (PRL) is a polypeptide hormone that is mainly synthesized and secreted by the lactotroph cells of the pituitary. There are two main isoforms of PRL: 23‐kDa PRL (named full‐length PRL) and vasoinhibins (including 5.6–18 kDa fragments).

Pulmonary circulation and ventilation [PDF]
Postgraduate Medical Journal, 1974 Summary The pulmonary circuit receives the whole of the cardiac output, and the flow through it is governed by events in the systemic circulation. Its function is gaseous exchange, and the low resistance and high capacitance of the circuit is subservient to this function.
