• Cat.No.: PRL-2715H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human Prolactin is expressed inPichia pastoris.

Specification

• Cat. No.: PRL-2715H
• Description: Prolactin is a neuroendocrine hormone synthesized primarily by the pituitary gland but also a variety of other cell types including the placenta, brain and uterus. Its primary function is to promote and maintain lactation but has also been shown to have a role in breast cancer development, regulation of reproductive function and immunoregulation.
