Abstract

To identify cellular sites of prolactin receptor messenger RNA synthesis in the rat brain, we used a combined reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction protocol to generate single stranded DNA probes for in situ hybridization. The results of these experiments identify the epithelial cells of the choroid plexus as a major site of prolactin receptor gene expression in the rat central nervous system.
