Prolactin and human tumourogenesis.

Journal of neuroendocrinology - 1 Jul 2010

Fernandez I, Touraine P, Goffin V

Abstract excerpt

The involvement of prolactin in human tumourogenesis has been long debated. The reason is that the evidence supporting the role of circulating prolactin in promoting breast cancer was mainly obtained using rodent models, whereas most of the studies performed in human species in the 1980s have remained inconclusive. Things have now started to change because two alternative mechanisms of prolactin actions in tumour...
