Product Overview
This rabbit polyclonal antibody recognizes prolactin (gene Prl) in mouse samples and is validated for ELISA and Western blot. The predicted molecular weight is 25.5 kDa, and the supplier reports an observed band at about 10 kDa.
Prolactin (PRL) is a peptide hormone secreted mainly by lactotroph cells of the anterior pituitary. Its best-known role is stimulating mammary gland development and milk production, but it also influences reproduction, metabolism and immune function, and serum prolactin is routinely measured in endocrinology research.
