Effects of prolactin on ventricular myocyte shortening and calcium transport in the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat

Effects of prolactin on ventricular myocyte shortening and calcium transport in the streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat

The physiological role of prolactin (PRL) in the heart, and in particular the diabetic heart, are largely unknown. The effects of PRL on ventricular myocyte shortening and Ca2+ transport in the streptozotocin (STZ) – induced diabetic and in age-matched control rats were investigated. PRL receptor pr...
