Organ allometry studies show that hSTC-2-induced dwarfism is associated with testicular organomegaly and a significant reduction in skeletal muscle mass likely contributing to the dwarf phenotype, and analysis of mouse Stc2 gene expression indicates that these tissues are specific physiological targets of stanniocalcins.
Effects of cancer chemotherapeutic agents on endocrine organs and serum levels of estrogens, progesterone, prolactin, and luteinizing hormone.
In addition to their direct antitumor effects, these agents also produced changes in endocrine system which may be synergistic or antagonistic to the chemotherapy of endocrine-responsive neoplasms.

The Influence of Neural Blocking Agents Injected into the Third Ventricle of the Rat Brain and Hypothalamic Electrical Stimulation on Serum Prolactin 1
Summary The influence of neural blocking agents injected into the third ventricle of the brain of female rats at the time of vaginal estrus with and without electrical stimulation of the ventral…
Circadian pattern of prolactin and growth hormone levels in female rats of two strains.
Growth hormone exhibited wide fluctuations in the Sch:SPD rat, attaining peak levels at 1300 hr, but no apparent periodicity was observed in the COBS rats.

Treatment of the hosts with estrogen prior to tumor implantation, as well as treatment of both tumor and host, enhanced the effects of perphenazine on serum prolactin levels, on the normal mammae, and on mammary tumor growth.
Prolactin Production by Rat Anterior Pituitaries Cultured in vitro as Estimated by Crop Gland Assay, Densitometric Analysis and Radioimmunoassay 1
Anterior pituitaries were aseptically removed from sexually mature female Sprague Dawley rats and cultured in an air environment for a period of 54 days with a medium change every 3 days with the loss of the growth hormone component beginning on the 15th day medium change.
