[Physico-chemical, immunochemical, and biological activity of prolactin from human amniotic fluid]. 1992

A A Bulatov, and E E Makarovskaia, and M I Seganova, and V P Kuznetsov

Highly purified preparation of prolactin with molecular mass 23 kDa, which is the main form of the hormone in human amnionic fluid, was isolated from the fluid using gel filtration on Sephadex G-100, chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose, concanavalin A Sepharose, CM-cellulose. Physico-chemical, immunochemical and biological properties of the amnionic prolactin were studied as compared with those of hypophyseal hormone. Properties of the hormonal forms isolated from both these tissues were similar. The glycosylated form of prolactin with molecular mass 25.0 kDa was detected either in amnionic fluid or in hypophysis.

D011247 Pregnancy The status during which female mammals carry their developing young (EMBRYOS or FETUSES) in utero before birth, beginning from FERTILIZATION to BIRTH. Gestation,Pregnancies
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.
