Figure 1From: Prolactin stimulates the proliferation of normal female cholangiocytes by differential regulation of Ca2+-dependent PKC isoformsThe localization of prolactin receptor in the liver was evaluated by immunohistochemistry (scale bar = 50 μm) in liver sections from normal and BDL female and male rats. Bile ducts from normal and BDL female and male rats express these receptors (arrows). No immunohistochemical reaction was observed when a consecutive liver section of the same field was incubated with non-immune serum. Hepatocytes from normal and BDL female and male rats express the prolactin receptor.Back to article page
