Serum prolactin concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassays in 98 patients with established carcinoma of breast, 12 patients with cystic mastitis and 10 patients with gynaecomastia and compared with that of age matched normal control women. The serum prolactin levels in the patients with breast cancer, gynaecomastia or cystic mastitis were observed to be similar to that in normal women. It was interesting to note that the levels of prolactin in the luteal phase of the cycle were higher than that in the early follicular phase in normal women.
采用放射免疫分析法测定了98例确诊为乳腺癌的患者、12例囊性乳腺炎患者和10例男性乳房发育症患者的血清催乳素浓度,并与年龄匹配的正常对照女性进行了比较。观察发现,乳腺癌、男性乳房发育症或囊性乳腺炎患者的血清催乳素水平与正常女性相似。值得注意的是,正常女性月经周期黄体期的催乳素水平高于卵泡早期。
