    (Başkent Üniversitesi, 2023-03) Arnaldo Acosta; Matthew Araujo; Santiago J. Santelis
    ABSTRACT Burn injuries represent a significant health care challenge worldwide that requires effective interventions to optimize patient outcomes. Prolactin, a versatile hormone traditionally associated with lactation, has emerged as a promising factor with potential implications beyond its classical role. In this review article, we aim to synthesize and analyze the existing literature on the role of prolactin in burn injuries, focusing on its impact on inflammation, immune response, tissue repair, and potential neuroprotective effects. By exploring the mechanisms underlying prolactin's actions, this article provides insights into the therapeutic potential of prolactin in burn injury management.
