Scientific Data Images for Human Prolactin Antibody
Detection of Human Prolactin by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysate of human pituitary tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Mouse Anti-Human Prolactin Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB6821) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Mouse IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF018). A specific band was detected for Prolactin at approximately 23 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.Applications for Human Prolactin Antibody

Background: Prolactin
Prolactin (PRL) is a secreted neuroendocrine hormone that acts primarily on the mammary gland to promote lactation. It is secreted by the anterior pituitary under tonic inhibition by hypothalamic dopamine. In humans Prolactin is also produced peripherally, while in rodents, the only known non-pituitary source is the placenta. Prolactin bioactivity is regulated by post-translational modifications including polymerization, phosphorylation, and proteolytic cleavage. Cleavage by matrix metalloproteinases or Cathepsin D can produce antiangiogenic fragments also called vasoinhibins.
