22. This review addresses risk factors for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) linked to prolactin (PRL), the effects of PRL and vasoinhibins on joint tissues, blood vessels, and immune cells, and the clinical and experimental data associating PRL with RA. [review] PMID: 27026299
23. Data suggest that the serum level of PRL was closely related to the antibody production and disease activity of systemic lupus eruthematosus patients. PRL concentration was dramatically reduced upon the remission of disease activity. PMID: 26678441
24. prolactin levels and pituitary adenoma diameters may be associated with increased risk of cancer in patients with prolactinoma PMID: 26720589
