Effect of estrogen on prolactin mRNA in the rat pituitary. Analysis by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry.

Abstract:

:The effect of estrogen on prolactin (PRL) synthesis at a single-cell level was studied by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. Long-term estrogen treatment increased PRL-containing cells from 10-20% of total cell population to 80-90%, as revealed by immunohistochemistry. PRL mRNA containing cells also increased in a similar fashion. Moreover, cytoplasmic PRL mRNA expressed as the number of silver grains per cell increased 4- to 5-fold by estrogen. These results suggest that long-term estrogen treatment causes not only PRL cell proliferation but also an increase in PRL mRNA in a single cell.

  • Changes in growth hormone secretion in spontaneously hypertensive rats.

    abstract::Secretion of the growth hormone (GH) in spontaneously hypertensive (SH) male rats has been determined and compared with that of normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) controls. In a first set of experiments, plasma GH concentration and pituitary GH content were measured in SH rats 30, 60 and 90 days old. 30-day rats showed r...
