PMID: 32395971
Among all the hormone-secreting pituitary tumours, prolactinomas are the most frequently found in the clinic. Since dopamine is the primary inhibitor of lactotroph function, dopamine agonists represent the first-line therapy....

PMID: 29869822
The membrane progesterone receptors (mPRα, mPRβ, mPRγ, mPRδ and mPRε) are known to mediate rapid nongenomic progesterone functions in different cell types. However, the functions of these receptors in the...

. 2009 Jul;
43(4):267-74.
PMID: 19570576
In 5-month-old male and female dopamine receptor 2 (D2R) knockout mice food intake per animal was unaltered while food per g BW was increased. We wished to evaluate the effect...

PMID: 15817666
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A is an important angiogenic cytokine in cancer and pathological angiogenesis and has been related to the antiangiogenic activity of dopamine in endothelial cells. We investigated...

PMID: 11897683
We determined the consequences of the loss of D2 receptors (D2R) on the GH-IGF-I axis using mice deficient in functional dopamine D2 receptors by targeted mutagenesis (D2R(-/-)). Body weights were...

. 2001 Feb;
280(3):E462-70.
PMID: 11171601
Activation of pituitary angiotensin (ANG II) type 1 receptors (AT1) mobilizes intracellular Ca2+, resulting in increased prolactin secretion. We first assessed desensitization of AT1 receptors by testing ANG II-induced intracellular...

. 2000 Aug;
165(1-2):67-74.
PMID: 10940485
In estrogen-induced pituitary hyperplasia AII-evoked prolactin release is decreased and the octapeptide does not generate a spike elevation in [Ca(2+)](i) in vitro. We studied whether or not bromocriptine could restore...

Am J Physiol
. 1999 Sep;
277(3):E455-63.
PMID: 10484357
In rat pituitary cells from estrogen-induced hyperplasia, angiotensin II (ANG II) does not evoke a clear spike elevation of intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) but induces a plateau increase. The present...

. 1998 Apr;
274(3):E534-40.
PMID: 9530138
We evaluated the effects of angiotensin II (ANG II) and its antagonists on prolactin release, intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) mobilization, and [3H]thymidine uptake in cells from normal rat pituitaries and from...

PMID: 9521091
Marked sexual and ontogenic differences have been described in gonadotropin regulation in the rat. These could arise from events occurring both at the hypothalamic or hypophyseal levels. The present experiments...
