Under most conditions, prolactin secretion from the pituitary gland is subject to negative‐
feedback regulation. Prolactin stimulates dopamine release from tuberoinfundibular (TIDA) …

Prolactin (PRL), synthesized and secreted from lactotrophs of the anterior pituitary gland, is
tonically inhibited by hypothalamic dopamine (DA) throughout the female reproductive …

A new method for estimation of in vitro neurosecretory activity of tuberoinfundibular
dopaminergic (TIDA) neurons was developed by measuring the rate of synthesis of …

Prolactin and oxytocin are important reproductive hormones implicated in several common
adaptive functions during pregnancy, pseudopregnancy and lactation. Recently …

Pregnancy hormones, such as prolactin, sensitize neural circuits controlling parental
interactions to induce timely activation of maternal behaviors immediately after parturition …

Dopamine neurons of the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus (ARC) tonically inhibit the release
of the protein hormone prolactin from lactotropic cells in the anterior pituitary gland and thus …

During late pregnancy and lactation, the tuberoinfundibular dopamine (TIDA) neurons that
regulate prolactin secretion by negative feedback become less able to produce dopamine in …

The mesolimbic and nigrostriatal dopamine (DA) systems play a key role in the physiology of
reward seeking, motivation and motor control. Importantly, they are also involved in the …

Prolactin is a pleiotropic peptide hormone produced by the lactotrophs in the anterior
pituitary. Its rate of secretion is primarily regulated by a negative‐feedback mechanism …

The possible involvement of cAMP in mediating the dopaminergic inhibition of PRL release
was studied in primary cultures of anterior pituitary cells from female rats and in lactotroph …
