Prolactin (PRL) is a hormone involved in many biological functions. In some species, there is a family of PRL-related genes; such is the case in the mouse and rat. The actions of members of the PRL family can be distinguished based on the involvement of the PRL receptor signaling pathway (classical versus nonclassical). Recent insights into the biology of the PRL family have been derived from m...
PRL-3, an oncogenic dual-specificity phosphatase, is overexpressed in 50% of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and associated with poor survival. We found that stable expression of PRL-3 confers cytokine independence and growth advantage of AML cells. However, how PRL-3 mediates these functions in AML is not known. To comprehensively screen for PRL3-regulated proteins in AML, we performed SILAC-...
The sustained component of visual attention lowers the perceptual threshold of stimuli located at the attended region. Attentional performance is not equal for all eccentric positions, leading to variations in perception. The location of the preferred retinal locus (PRL) for fixation might be influenced by these attentional variations. This study investigated the relation between the placement ...
Recent research has revealed that endogenous cannabinoid receptors (CB1 and CB2) react with the active ingredient of marijuana, Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol. Two endogenous ligands activate these receptors. The principal one, anandamide (AEA), activates CB1. AEA and CB1 are localized to various neurons within the brain. Because Delta(9)-tetrahydrocannabinol inhibited prolactin (Prl) secretion ...
Human endometrial fibroblasts have been immortalized by infection with simian virus 40 large T antigen and established as a permanent cell line, St-2. Biochemical differentiation of this cell line has been demonstrated by the ability of a decidualizing stimulus, 8-bromo-cAMP plus medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA), to induce PRL secretion and increase the enzymatic activity of estrone sulfatase....
Prolactin (PRL) is one of the most versatile hormones known. It is considered an adaptive hormone due to the key roles it plays in the modulation of the stress response and during pregnancy and lactation. Within the brain, PRL acts as a neuropeptide to promote physiological responses related to reproduction, stress adaptation, neurogenesis, and neuroprotection. The action of PRL on the nervous ...
Angiogenesis plays a key role in promoting tumorigenesis and metastasis. The 16-kDa fragment of prolactin (16k PRL) is an NH(2)-terminal natural breakdown fragment of the intact 23-kDa prolactin and has been shown to have potent antiangiogenic and antitumor activities. The mechanism(s) involved in the action of 16k PRL in endothelial cells remains unclear. In this study, we showed that 16k PRL ...
Prolactin (PRL) is the primary hormone that, in conjunction with local factors, leads to lobuloalveolar development during pregnancy. Recently, receptor activator of NF-kappaB ligand (RANKL) has been identified as one of the effector molecules essential for lobuloalveolar development. The molecular mechanisms by which PRL may induce RANKL expression have not been carefully examined. Here we rep...
Prolactin (PRL) is a protein hormone, as well as a cytokine, which is synthesized and secreted from specialized cells of the anterior pituitary gland, named lactotrophs. More than 300 functions exerted by PRL in vertebrates have been recognized; and they reflect the ubiquitous distribution of its receptors, as well as the fact that PRL is synthesized in many extrapituitary tissues. Among these ...
Phosphatase of regenerating liver-3 (PRL-3) has been suggested as a potential target for anticancer drugs based on its involvement in tumor metastasis. However, little is known about a small-molecule inhibitor against PRL-3. In this study, we report that curcumin, the component of the spice turmeric, shows its antitumor effect by selectively down-regulating the expression of PRL-3 but not its f...
