Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Growth in growth hormone insensitivity
Primary GH insensitivity due to GH receptor deficiency (GHRD) provides a model for studying the discrete effects of severe IGF-I deficiency on growth and body composition. Growth failure in utero is doubtful, but postpartum growth proceeds at rates that result in adult statures 4-12 standard deviations (SDs) below the normal mean.

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

Background: Growth hormone (GH) mainly serves an endocrine function to regulate somatic growth, but also serves an autocrine function in lung growth and pulmonary function.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Growth hormone attenuates skeletal muscle changes in experimental chronic heart failure
Objective: This study evaluated the effects of growth hormone (GH) on morphology and myogenic regulatory factors (MRF) gene expression in skeletal muscle of rats with ascending aortic stenosis (AAS) induced chronic heart failure.Design: Male 90-100 g ...

Growth Hormone and Metabolic Homeostasis
Pituitary growth hormone (GH) is a peptide hormone predominantly secreted by somatotrophs in the anterior pituitary under the tight control of the hypothalamic–pituitary axis and GH secretagogues.
