New concepts in prolactin biology.
Human prolactin (PRL) is currently viewed as a hormone of pituitary origin, whose production (i.e. serum levels) is controlled by dopamine, whose biological actions relate exclusively to lactation and reproductive functions, for which any genetic disorder is yet to be identified, and whose unique associated pathology is hyperprolactinemia. Both experimental studies and human sample/cohort-based...
متن کاملBasement membrane.
Basement membrane has attracted less attention than the other components of connective tissue. But, like the other extracellular fibres and matrix materials, it can profoundly influence both the structure and function of advanced life forms. Usually taking the shape of thin, structureless cementing material between epithelial and connective tissue, basement membranes are widely distributed thro...
متن کاملBasement Membrane
We report a case of struma ovarii with hyperthyroidism and elevated serum concentrations of type IV collagen and laminin. Circulating levels of type IV collagen and laminin were measured using specific radioimmunoassays (RIAs) for 7S collagen and the P-1 fragment of laminin, and the basement membrane components in the tumor were investigated by immunohistochemical analysis. Strong immunohistoch...
متن کاملINSULINOMA NEW CONCEPTS IN MANAGEMENT
In this report, nine patients with insulinoma who were operated on between 19H5 and I <J<J3 at the Shohada Medical Center affiliated to the Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences in Tehran are presented. There were three males and six females (male to female ratio I :2) and the patients' age ranged from 23 to 60 years old (mean age 37.6 years old). Duration of symptoms was from thr...
متن کاملLaminins in basement membrane assembly
The heterotrimeric laminins are a defining component of all basement membranes and self-assemble into a cell-associated network. The three short arms of the cross-shaped laminin molecule form the network nodes, with a strict requirement for one α, one β and one γ arm. The globular domain at the end of the long arm binds to cellular receptors, including integrins, α-dystroglycan, heparan sulfate...
