Evidence for a Role of Prolactin in Calcium Homeostasis: Regulation of Intestinal Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid Type 6, Intestinal Calcium Absorption, and the 25-Hydroxyvitamin D(3) 1α Hydroxylase Gene by Prolactin

Increased calcium transport has been observed in vitamin D-deficient pregnant and lactating rats, indicating that another factor besides 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25(OH)(2)D(3)) is involved in intestinal calcium transport. To investigate prolactin as a hormone involved in calcium homeostasis, vi...
