Descriptor English: Receptors, Prolactin
Descriptor Spanish: Receptores de Prolactina
Descriptor receptores de prolactina
Scope note: Proteínas lábiles que están dentro o sobre las células sensibles a la prolactina que se unen a la prolactina y que inician la respuesta fisiológica celular a dicha hormona. Una de las respuestas es la síntesis de caseína mamaria. Los receptores se encuetran también en la placenta, el hígado, los testículos, los riñones, los ovarios y otros órganos, uniendose y respondiendo a otras hormonas y a sus análogos y antagonistas. Este receptor está relacionado con el receptor a la hormona del crecimiento.

Scope note: Labile proteins on or in prolactin-sensitive cells that bind prolactin initiating the cells' physiological response to that hormone. Mammary casein synthesis is one of the responses. The receptors are also found in placenta, liver, testes, kidneys, ovaries, and other organs and bind and respond to certain other hormones and their analogs and antagonists. This receptor is related to the growth hormone receptor.
