Impact of prolactin on the growth rate pattern and biochemical components of accessory sex organs of male albino rats during puberal transition

Abstract Prolactin (PRL) was administered subcutaneously to different age-groups of male albino rats across the puberal transition. The tissue somatic indices (Tsi) and organic components of accessory sex organs were increased in the presence of Prl at all the age-groups. The participation of Prl in...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Prolactin (PRL) was administered subcutaneously to different age-groups of male albino rats across the puberal transition. The tissue somatic indices (Tsi) and organic components of accessory sex organs were increased in the presence of Prl at all the age-groups. The participation of Prl in the acceleration of maturation events of accessory sex organs was age-dependent.
