Detection of macroprolactinemia and molecular characterization of prolactin isoforms in blood samples of hyperprolactinemic women
Prolactin (PRL) circulates in the blood in the form of monomeric prolactin, dimeric prolactin and macroprolactin. Macroprolactin is a common cause of hyperprolactinemia. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of macroprolactinemia in hyperprolactinemic women and to undertake the bi...
