Prostate responses to constant levels of PRL. The increase of serum PRL after treatment with haloperidol (H) or after an adenohypophysis graft under the kidney capsule (Adh) produced increments in the three measured parameters. However, the ventral and dorsal regions of the prostate exhibited some differences, i.e., H did not modify the alveoli area at the ventral prostate, and both Adh and H did not modify the epithelium height at the dorsal prostate. Gray bars are compared vs. the white bar representing the control (C) value. * = p < 0.05; ** = p < 0.01.
