Summary: Enables prolactin receptor activity and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in cellular response to granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor stimulus; positive regulation of B cell proliferation; and positive regulation of protein autophosphorylation. Predicted to be located in cell surface. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hyperprolactinemia. Orthologous to human PRLR (prolactin receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Study indicates that chronic prolactin administration before kainic acid induced damage induces hippocampal neuroprotection associated with prolactin receptor and VGLUT1 overexpression.
Title: Prolactin prevents the kainic acid-induced neuronal loss in the rat hippocampus by inducing prolactin receptor and putatively increasing the VGLUT1 overexpression.
This study demonstrated that the Cultured neurons expressed mRNA for both PRL and its receptor (PRLR), and both PRL and PRLR expression levels changed after the excitotoxic insult.
Title: Prolactin mediates neuroprotection against excitotoxicity in primary cell cultures of hippocampal neurons via its receptor.
Results showed that an active sexual life, with constant execution of sexual behavior, produces a sustained increase in serum PRL, prostate PRL receptors, and the pStat3 signaling pathway
Title: Correlation of prolactin levels and PRL-receptor expression with Stat and Mapk cell signaling in the prostate of long-term sexually active rats.
PRLR signaling is required for DNA synthesis and survival of rat insulinoma cells

The cholestasis-induced changes in the intensity of prolactin receptor expression were opposite in kidney and liver cells.
Title: Prolactine receptor expression in kidney tissue of female rats with cholestasis: the effect of hyperprolactinemia.
The results demonstrate that the prolactin receptor system is altered in nonneural tissues as a result of the female's reproductive history.
Title: Reproductive experience alters prolactin receptor expression in mammary and hepatic tissues in female rats.
PRLR mRNA was highly expressed throughout the rostral preoptic area, particularly in periventricular regions surrounding the third ventricle, and there was a high degree of colocalization of PRLR mRNA in both Gad1/Gad2 and Kiss1 mRNA-containing cells.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
