Hypothalamic prolactin receptor+ dopaminergic neurons regulate energy metabolism and nociceptive threshold in mice during lactation

Women during lactation undergo significant bone loss and metabolic changes. However, the underlying mechanisms in the brain remain unclear. Herein, we found that prolactin receptor (PRLR)+ neurons in the hypothalamus control lactation physiology and metabolism in mice. Prolactin...
