Pancreatic islets adapt to insulin resistance of pregnancy by up regulating β-cell mass and increasing insulin secretion. Previously, using a transgenic mouse with global, heterozygous deletion of prolactin receptor (Prlr(+/−)), we found Prlr signaling is important for this adaptation. However, sinc...
