The effects of elevated circulating prolactin in rats with hereditary hypothalamic diabetes insipidus (Brattleboro strain).

abstract：:We previously have described molecular mechanisms converging at the Nur response element-signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) composite site responsible for synergistic activation of the proopiomelanocortin (POMC) gene promoter by leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and CRH. In this study, we asked how...
