Objective: Little is known about the role of CYP2D6 polymorphism in risperidone-induced prolactin release in children.
Method: Twenty-five children (aged 5-15 years) with pervasive developmental disorders were genotyped for CYP2D6 polymorphisms. Serum prolactin, risperidone, and 9-hydroxyrisperidone were assessed at baseline and after 8 weeks of risperidone treatment (mean dosage, 0.06 +/- 0.03 mg/kg/d). After 24 weeks of treatment, prolactin was measured in a subsample of 15 children. Adverse effects were evaluated using a clinician-rated survey.
Results: Mean +/- SD prolactin levels increased from 7.8 +/- 8.0 ng/mL at baseline to 33.2 +/- 12.8 ng/mL at week 8 (P < 0.001), with a slight decrease to 28.8 +/- 13.6 ng/mL at week 24. At week 8, serum prolactin level was positively correlated with dose per kilogram (r = 0.648, P < 0.001), number of functional CYP2D6 genes (J = 2.117, P = 0.034), and serum 9-hydroxyrisperidone concentration (r = 0.664, P = 0.001) and was negatively correlated with the risperidone/9-hydroxyrisperidone ratio (r = -0.571, P = 0.004) but not with risperidone concentration (r = -0.243, P = 0.264) nor age (r = 0.072, P = 0.733). Prolactin elevation was not associated with adverse effects.
Conclusions: Low-to-intermediate doses of risperidone induced a 4-fold prolactin increase in children without a clear development of tolerance up to 6 months. CYP2D6 ultrarapid metabolism may be a risk factor for more pronounced prolactin elevation.

The role of prolactin in sleep regulation has been the subject of extensive research over the past 50 years, resulting in the identification of multiple, disparate functions for the hormone. Prolactin demonstrated a characteristic circadian release pattern with elevation during dark and diminution during light. High prolactin levels were linked to non-rapid eye movement sleep and electroencephalogram delta activity in humans.

Introduction: Thyroid disease (TD), particularly hypothyroidism, is an important etiology of hyperprolactinemia (HPRL). We conducted a systematic review of the clinical characteristics, management, and outcomes of adults (> 18 years) with this clinical association.
Materials And Methods: We searched PUBMED, SCOPUS, and EMBASE to find eligible articles published in English from any date till 15th December 2022.

Background: In prolactinoma diagnosis, current guidelines recommend prolactin (PRL) assessment, considering values exceeding 200 ng/mL highly suggestive of prolactinoma. However, subtler hyperprolactinemia is more common, and to rule out potential prolactinomas, pituitary resonance magnetic imaging (MRI) studies are necessary. These present limitations in terms of availability, costs, and delays in diagnosis.

Background: The lactation period is a crucial period where the nutritional status and the mother's environment influence milk production, impacting organ differentiation, function, and structure in the baby's body.
Aim: The study aimed to determine the impact of providing lactating rats with quail egg supplements enriched with marine macroalgae on their physiological condition (blood cells, lipids, blood glucose, antioxidant activity, and prolactin hormone levels) and the growth of their offspring.
Methods: The study involved 25 lactating Sprague Dawley white rats aged 3 months old and weighing approximately 200 g divided into five treatment groups thus; T0 as the control, T1 with quail eggs enriched with commercial feed, T2 with quail eggs enriched with 3% of marine macroalgae, T3 with quail eggs enriched with 4% of marine macroalgae, and T4 with quail eggs enriched with 5% of marine macroalgae, which received one quail egg for 21 days.
