THE RAT MAMMARY GLAND AS A NOVEL SITE OF EXPRESSION OF MELANIN-CONCENTRATING HORMONE RECEPTOR 1 MRNA AND ITS PROTEIN IMMUNOREACTIVITY

The Rat Mammary Gland as a Novel Site of Expression of Melanin-Concentrating Hormone Receptor 1 mRNA and Its Protein Immunoreactivity

Lactation is a complex physiological process, depending on orchestrated central and outlet peripheral events, including substantial brain plasticity.Among these events is a novel expression of pro-melanin-concentrating hormone (Pmch) mRNA in the rodent hypothalamus, such as the ventral part of the medial preoptic area (vmMPOA).This expression reach
