Alterations in Hypothalamic Mechanisms Associated with Reduced Suckling-Induced Prolactin Secretion in the Lactation-Deficient OFA < b > < i > hr < /i > < /b > / < b > < i > hr < /i > < /b > Rat

Conclusion: The different patterns of TH, opioids, their R, and PRL signaling inhibitor expression with conserved TH activation by suckling may disturb the balance between stimulation and inhibition of PRL release resulting in impaired suckling-induced PRL secretion in OFA rats.Neuroendocrinology
