Abstract

Macroprolactin is mostly a complex of monomeric prolactin (PRL) with IgG and considered to be biological inactive. Its presence commonly leads to diagnostic confusion and misdiagnosis. Polyethylene-glycol (PEG) precipitation method is widely used for a screening of macroprolactinemia. We applied PEG precipi- tation method for 200 samples which was ordered test of PRL. The PRL recovery was 65.0±11.2% (mean ±SD). In our data, PRL recovery less than 42.5% (mean-2SD) indicates the presence of macroprolactin. The prevalence of macroprolactinemia was 4.5%(9/197) in total samples and 9.5%(2/21) in hyperprolac- tinemia. Our result indicates the need for PEG screening for macroprolactinemia to avoid misdiagnosis. [Short Communication].

[聚乙二醇沉淀法筛选巨催乳素血症的有效性]。
巨催乳素主要是单体催乳素(PRL)与IgG的复合物,被认为是无生物活性的。它的存在通常导致诊断混淆和误诊。聚乙二醇(PEG)沉淀法被广泛用于巨催乳素血症的筛选。采用聚乙二醇沉淀法对200个样品进行了PRL的有序试验。PRL回收率为65.0±11.2% (mean±SD)。在我们的数据中,PRL回收率小于42.5%(平均- 2sd)表明存在巨催乳素。大催乳素血症的患病率为4.5%(9/197),高催乳素血症的患病率为9.5%(2/21)。我们的结果表明,需要PEG筛查大量催乳素血症,以避免误诊。简短的沟通。
