Endocrine regulation of prolactin cell function and modulation of osmoreception in the Mozambique tilapia
Highlights • We review the regulation of prolactin cell function and modulation of osmoreception in the Mozambique tilapia. • We describe the endocrine regulators of prolactin release and mRNA levels. • We provide an updated discussion on the role of hormones and extracellular osmolality in the regu...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • We review the regulation of prolactin cell function and modulation of osmoreception in the Mozambique tilapia. • We describe the endocrine regulators of prolactin release and mRNA levels. • We provide an updated discussion on the role of hormones and extracellular osmolality in the regulation of prolactin cells. • We conclude that changes in extracellular osmolality are sufficient, by themselves, to regulate prolactin cell function. |
