Influence of Ovine Prolactin on Transport of Fluid and Sodium Chloride by the Mammalian Intestine and Gall Bladder

Abstract: Mucosal fluid, sodium and chloride transfer were measured in everted sacs of rat, guinea-pig and hamster jejunum, and in rat ileum and colon, and in guinea-pig gall bladder. After treatment of the animal with ovine prolactin, a highly significant enhancement of fluid and NaCl absorption was observed in rat, hamster and guinea-pig jejunum. Prolactin treatment caused a significant increase in fluid and NaCl transfer in rat ileum, but not in gui nea\x=req-\ pig ileum or rat colon. Prolactin administration had no … Show more

“…Both PRL actions and signaling pathway obtained from the mouse colon seemed to be opposite to our findings; this indicated the species difference with regard to the types of PRL receptor, the signaling pathways, including the membrane proteins responsible for PRL activation. Although PRL has previously been reported to regulate electrolyte transport in the mammalian small intestine (7,18), the present results showed a direct effect of PRL on the colonic epithelium and confirmed the important role of PRL in maintenance of ionic homeostasis, especially during lactation and pregnancy.…”

“…-activated conductances in mouse colon Regulation of electrolyte transport in the mammalian intestine by PRL has been reported in previous studies [28,29]. While these studies examined both acute and chronic effects of PRL, we focused in the present report on acute effects of PRL on electrolyte transport.…”

“…Treatment of rats with high (superphysiological) doses of ovine prolactin produced fluid shifts from intracellular to extracellular fluid compartments, of possible importance in maintaining vascular volume during acute stress [128]; a similar fluid shift from intracellular to extracellular spaces following ovine prolactin treatment, has been reported for the tilapia [111], As with other vertebrate classes discussed above, closer attention is being paid to transport across individual or gans. Intestinal sacs have been used for some time to de monstrate the stimulatory effect of prolactin on Na*, Cl and water absorption [117][118][119][120][121][122]169]. Other experiments de monstrate that prolactin also stimulates intestinal Ca2 transport [53,120] (and bone Ca-'* mobilization [150]); this may be one effect contributing to the hypercalcemic action mentioned above.…”
