Estradiol directly stimulated the secretion of prolactin by the adenohypophyseal cells of intact rats in a monolayer culture. Complex interactions between estradiol and some other regulators of the hypophyseal lactotropic function were revealed. It was established that changes in prolactin synthesis and secretion in ovariectomized rats persisted for 3--4 days of adenohypophyseal cell cultivation in vitro.
