Characterization of Chicken Prolactin Regulatory Element Binding Protein and its Expression in the Anterior Pituitary Gland during Embryogenesis and Different Reproductive Stages

The PRL regulatory element binding protein (PREB) is a transcription factor that specifically binds to a Pit-1 binding element in the PRL promoter to regulate PRL gene expression in mammals. However, it is unknown whether chicken PREB involves the expression of PRL mRNA or not. This study aimed to...
