Biochem/physiol Actions

Deletion of PRLR (prolactin receptor) leads to development of prolactinomas in mice. Mutation in the gene is known to cause familial hyperprolactinemia. Overexpression of PRLR might be associated with tumorigenesis of cervical cancer. The gene is known to be downregulated in invasive breast cancer metastasis.

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4

Metastasis to the bone is a deleterious aspect of breast cancer and is a preferred site that results in bone loss. Hormones such as prolactin (PRL) have not yet been studied for their role in modulating the secondary tumor bone

No genetic anomalies specifically predisposing humans to prolactinomas have so far been identified. The prolactin receptor (PRLR) is a good candidate, however, as Prlr knockout mice develop prolactinomas, and a case of familial hyperprolactinemia has been linked to PRLR mutation.

Prolactin receptor (PRLR) overexpression could play a role in tumorigenesis. The aim of this study was to determine prolactin (PRL) and PRLR expression in biopsies from patients with precursor lesions and uterine cervical cancer. PRLR expression was analyzed in 63

Schizophrenia (SCZ) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are clinically associated, and common knowledge attributes this association to side effects of antipsychotic treatment. However, even drug-naive patients with SCZ are at increased risk for T2D. Dopamine dysfunction has a central role
Dopamine-prolactin pathway potentially contributes to the schizophrenia and type 2 diabetes comorbidity.
