Abstract

Expression of prolactin receptors (PR) in the nuclei and plasma membrane of the bile duct cells is demonstrated in 1-45-day-old male and female rats with the use of indirect immunoperoxidase technique. The intensity of PR staining in the bile duct cells is not sex-dependent; it increases from the 1st day till the 45th day and disappears by the 65th day of postnatal ontogeny. The PR-specific staining of hepatocytes also increases during the first 45 days of postnatal life and becomes sex-dependent by the 65th day.
