potassium chloride and Hyperprolactinemia

potassium chloride has been researched along with Hyperprolactinemia in 2 studies

Potassium Chloride: A white crystal or crystalline powder used in BUFFERS; FERTILIZERS; and EXPLOSIVES. It can be used to replenish ELECTROLYTES and restore WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE in treating HYPOKALEMIA.
potassium chloride : A metal chloride salt with a K(+) counterion.

Hyperprolactinemia: Increased levels of PROLACTIN in the BLOOD, which may be associated with AMENORRHEA and GALACTORRHEA. Relatively common etiologies include PROLACTINOMA, medication effect, KIDNEY FAILURE, granulomatous diseases of the PITUITARY GLAND, and disorders which interfere with the hypothalamic inhibition of prolactin release. Ectopic (non-pituitary) production of prolactin may also occur. (From Joynt, Clinical Neurology, 1992, Ch36, pp77-8)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"These results suggest that hyperprolactinemia increases basal, angiotensin II- and KCl-stimulated aldosterone secretion by ZG cells in OVX rats through activation of T-type Ca2+ channels, the post-cAMP and protein kinase A pathway, cytochrome P450 side-chain cleavage enzyme, and aldosterone synthase, as well as by causing increased expression of steroidogenic acute regulatory protein in ZG cells."7.71Stimulatory effects of hyperprolactinemia on aldosterone secretion in ovariectomized rats.
