Roles of Dopamine 2 Receptor Isoforms and G Proteins in Ethanol Regulated Prolactin Synthesis and Lactotropic Cell Proliferation

Alcohol consumption has been shown to increase prolactin (PRL) production and cell proliferation of pituitary lactotropes. It also causes a reduction in the lactotrope's response to dopaminergic agents and a differential expression of dopamine 2 receptor short (D2S) and long (D2L) isoforms in t...
