Role of Estrogen in the Dopaminergic Control of Prolactin Secretion*

Article 1981 EN

The effect of estrogen on the dopaminergic control of PRL secretion was investigated. Treatment of ovariectomized rats with estradiol benzoate (25 microgram/kg, sc) daily for 5 days resulted in a marked elevation of the serum PRL concentration.
