Specific prolactin binding in the rat adrenal gland: Its characterization and hormonal regulation

Rat adrenal prolactin receptors possess the same hormonal specificity as those in the prostate gland and liver, but are less stable during storage and after freezing. There is a gradual decrease in specific prolactin binding to the adrenal during sexual maturation in male rats; maximum binding capac...
