Abstract
Basal plasma prolactin (PRL) has been measured in 6 patients with chronic renal failure 3 months before and at monthly intervals during a 3 months 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25 (OH)2-D] treatment. Plasma PRL decreased rapidly during, 1,25 (OH)2-D treatment, while it remained unchanged during the 3-months control period. There was no correlation between PRL and parathyroid hormone (PTH; measured either with carboxy- or amino-terminal assays) and several other parameters. A direct effect of 1,25 (OH)2-D on PRL secretion may exist.Entities:
