Prolactin (animal free), rat recombinant
Prolactin (PRL) is a hormone that is made and secreted by the pituitary gland and acts in an endocrine, paracrine and autocrine manner. The prolactin receptor is expressed on many cell types and is linked to JAK kinase signaling pathways. Prolactin primary function is to regulate lactation, but it is known to have many other regulation functions, including roles in the immune system, cell growth, apoptosis, and differentiation.

Produced using animal free raw components and processes, in a non-mammalian system. Ideal for researchers concerned about the risks and effects of contaminating viruses, prions and trace growth factors from FBS and animal-derived ingredients used in standard recombinant protein production techniques. Endotoxin levels are less than 1.0 EU per ug protein via LAL. Bioactivity is comparable to recombinant protein produced in traditional techniques.
