Prolactin regulation of prolactin binding sites in pancreatic islets and adrenal glands of ovariectomized rats
The role of prolactin (Prl) in the regulation of Prl binding to its specific binding sites was studied in the Langerhans islets, adrenal gland and liver of adult ovariec tomized female rats. Animals were sc injected twice daily during 10 days with ovine Prl (1 mg/kg BW), sulpiride (30 mg/kg BW) and...
