近年来，对催乳素在脊椎动物泌乳素调节中作用的研究已经扩展到包括检查有助于调节旁腺催乳素分泌细胞分泌的离子和渗透因子，以及催乳素对一些离子和水运输上皮组织的影响。再加上整个动物体内平衡效应的信息，手术，组织培养，生物物理和生物化学技术的应用，以个别组件将促进更广泛和更综合的功能分析，这种激素在所有脊椎动物类中的重要调节作用。
Studies on the roles of prolactin in vertebrate osmoregulation have expanded in recent years to include examination of ionic and osmotic factors contributing to the regulation of secretion by paraneuronal prolactin-secreting cells and the effects of prolactin on a number of ion- and water-transporting epithelial tissues. Coupled with information on whole-animal homeostatic effects, the application of surgical, tissue-culture, biophysical and biochemical techniques to individual components will facilitate broader and more integrated functional analyses of the important osmoregulatory effects of this hormone in all vertebrate classes.
