Recombinant Mouse Prolactin. Synonyms: Mammotropin, Luterotropic hormone, Lutetropin, PRL.

Prolactin is a neuroendocrine hormone synthesized primarily by the pituitary gland but also a variety of other cell types including the placenta, brain and uterus. Its primary function is to promote and maintain lactation but has also been shown to have a role in breast cancer development, regulation of reproductive function and immunoregulation.
