Wu T, Duan Y, Jiang J, Gu T, Zhang P, Bi Y. A Century of Prolactin: Emerging Perspectives as a Metabolic Regulator. Diabetes Metab Res Rev 2024; 40:e3836. [PMID: 39096246 DOI: 10.1002/dmrr.3836] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Revised: 05/19/2024] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/05/2024]
Abstract
Prolactin, a hormone that has been studied for almost a century, has evolved from a reproductive regulator to a key player in metabolic health. Initially identified for its lactogenic role, the impact of prolactin on glucose and lipid metabolism became evident in the 1970s, leading to a paradigm shift in our understanding. Deviations in prolactin levels, including hyperprolactinaemia and hypoprolactinaemia, have been associated with adverse effects on glucose and lipid metabolism. Mechanistically, prolactin regulates metabolic homoeostasis by maintaining islet abundance, regulating the hypothalamic energy regulatory centre, balancing adipose tissue expansion, and regulating hepatic metabolism. Given the widespread use of pharmaceutical agents that affect prolactin levels, it is important to examine prolactin-related metabolic effects. Recently, a profound exploration of the intricate metabolic role of prolactin has been conducted, encompassing its rhythm-dependent regulatory influence on metabolism and its correlation with cognitive impairment associated with metabolic diseases. In this review, we highlight the role of prolactin as a metabolic regulator, summarise its metabolic effects, and discuss topics related to the association between prolactin and metabolic comorbidities.

Abstract
Infiltration of the myocardium with various cell types, cytokines and chemokines plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathies including inflammatory cardiomyopathies and myocarditis. A more comprehensive understanding of the precise immune mechanisms involved in acute and chronic myocarditis is essential to develop novel therapeutic approaches. This review offers a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge of the immune landscape in cardiomyopathies based on etiology. It identifies gaps in our knowledge about cardiac inflammation and emphasizes the need for new translational approaches to improve our understanding thus enabling development of novel early detection methods and more effective treatments.

Abstract
Hypertension is the predominant risk factor for cardiovascular disease related morbidity and mortality among Black adults in the United States. It contributes significantly to the development of heart failure and increases the risk of death following heart failure diagnosis. It is also a leading predisposing factor for hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and peripartum cardiomyopathy in Black women. As such, all stakeholders including health care providers, particularly primary care clinicians (including physicians and advanced practice providers), patients, and communities must be aware of the consequences of uncontrolled hypertension among Black adults. Appropriate treatment strategies should be identified and implemented to ensure timely and effective blood pressure management among Black individuals, particularly those with, and at risk for heart failure.
