Indirect immunoperoxidase technique in combination with cytophotometry showed that prolactin imbalance in the periovulatory period is characterized by considerable changes in the expression of prolactin receptors in uterine glands and endometrial stroma (but not in the myometrium) and in the pituitary gland and hypothalamus, while receptor compartmentalization pattern remains unchanged.

D011374 Progesterone The major progestational steroid that is secreted primarily by the CORPUS LUTEUM and the PLACENTA. Progesterone acts on the UTERUS, the MAMMARY GLANDS and the BRAIN. It is required in EMBRYO IMPLANTATION; PREGNANCY maintenance, and the development of mammary tissue for MILK production. Progesterone, converted from PREGNENOLONE, also serves as an intermediate in the biosynthesis of GONADAL STEROID HORMONES and adrenal CORTICOSTEROIDS.

D011388 Prolactin A lactogenic hormone secreted by the adenohypophysis (PITUITARY GLAND, ANTERIOR). It is a polypeptide of approximately 23 kD. Besides its major action on lactation, in some species prolactin exerts effects on reproduction, maternal behavior, fat metabolism, immunomodulation and osmoregulation. Prolactin receptors are present in the mammary gland, hypothalamus, liver, ovary, testis, and prostate.

D011981 Receptors, Prolactin Labile proteins on or in prolactin-sensitive cells that bind prolactin initiating the cells' physiological response to that hormone. Mammary casein synthesis is one of the responses. The receptors are also found in placenta, liver, testes, kidneys, ovaries, and other organs and bind and respond to certain other hormones and their analogs and antagonists. This receptor is related to the growth hormone receptor. Prolactin Receptors,PRL Receptors,Prolactin Receptor,Receptors, PRL,Receptor, Prolactin

It suppresses prolactin secretion. 2-Bromoergocryptine,Bromocryptin,2-Bromo-alpha-ergocryptine,2-Bromo-alpha-ergokryptine,2-Bromoergocryptine Mesylate,2-Bromoergocryptine Methanesulfonate,2-Bromoergokryptine,Bromocriptin,Bromocriptine Mesylate,CB-154,Parlodel,2 Bromo alpha ergocryptine,2 Bromo alpha ergokryptine,2 Bromoergocryptine,2 Bromoergocryptine Mesylate,2 Bromoergocryptine Methanesulfonate,2 Bromoergokryptine,CB 154,CB154,Mesylate, 2-Bromoergocryptine,Mesylate, Bromocriptine,Methanesulfonate, 2-Bromoergocryptine
D003592 Cytophotometry A method for the study of certain organic compounds within cells, in situ, by measuring the light intensities of the selectively stained areas of cytoplasm. The compounds studied and their locations in the cells are made to fluoresce and are observed under a microscope. Microfluorometry,Cytophotometries,Microfluorometries
