Differentiation of growth hormone- and prolactin-containing acidophils with peroxidase-labeled antibody.
In order to verify the concept that growth hormone and prolactin are contained in two different populations of acidophils, sections of Bouin-fixed rat hypophyses were stained immunochemically. For this purpose the histochemical demonstration of peroxidase was utilized after sequential application to the tissue section of rabbit antiserum to human growth hormone (or antiserum to rat prolactin) f...
متن کاملGrowth-hormone and prolactin excess.
The treatment of acromegaly and hyperprolactinaemia has been improved by the availability of effective and well-tolerated slow-release somatostatin analogues and dopamine agonists with long-lasting activity, such as cabergoline. The use of these drugs has extended the possibility of treatment to patients who would have responded poorly to the previously available compounds, such as octreotide o...
متن کاملProlactin and growth hormone in fish osmoregulation.
Prolactin is an important regulator of multiple biological functions in vertebrates, and has been viewed as essential to ion uptake as well as reduction in ion and water permeability of osmoregulatory surfaces in freshwater and euryhaline fish. Prolactin-releasing peptide seems to stimulate prolactin expression in the pituitary and peripheral organs during freshwater adaptation. Growth hormone,...
متن کاملReceptors for somatotropin (growth hormone) and prolactin.
Pituitary somatotropin (growth hormone) and prolactin are two related protein hormones produced by the pituitary gland. Both contain single polypeptide chains of 190-200 amino acid residues (Wallis, 1978). In mammals, prolactin acts primarily on the mammary glands, promoting mammary growth and lactation; in many species it also has direct effects on the gonads and possibly other organs (Horrobi...
متن کاملRole of Prolactin and Growth Hormone on Thymus Physiology
Intrathymic T-cell differentiation is under the control of the thymic microenvironment, which acts on maturing thymocytes via membrane as well as soluble products. Increasing data show that this process can be modulated by classical hormones, as exemplified herein by prolactin (PRL) and growth hormone (GH), largely secreted by the pituitary gland. Both PRL and GH stimulate the secretion of thym...
