pS6K1 as an efficacy marker of GnRH agonist with premenopausal breast cancer
Estradiol is a key factor for tumorigenesis and prognosis of hormone receptor-positive breast cancer. Adipocytes are one source of estradiol in patients with breast cancer. Recent studies have shown that phosphorylated ribosomal protein S6 kinase-1 plays

The growth plate sparing effects of the selective glucocorticoid receptor modulator, AL-438 [PDF]
Long-term use of glucocorticoids (GC) can cause growth retardation in children due to their actions on growth plate chondrocytes. AL-438, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent that acts through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) retains full anti ...

Growth Hormone Overexpression Disrupts Reproductive Status Through Actions on Leptin
Growth and reproduction are closely related. Growth hormone (GH)-transgenic common carp exhibit accelerated growth and delayed reproductive development, which provides an amenable model to study hormone cross talk between the growth and reproductive axes.

We have investigated the interaction between GH (growth hormone) and GHR (GH receptor). We previously demonstrated that a truncated GHR that possesses a transmembrane domain but no cytoplasmic domain blocks receptor signalling.

How the ghrelin receptor recognizes the acyl-modified orexigenic hormone
Ghrelin, discovered in 1999 as an endogenous ligand of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (now known as the ghrelin receptor), is a peptide hormone with diverse physiological activities, such as stimulation of growth hormone release, increased ...

Primary growth hormone insensitivity (Laron syndrome) and acquired hypothyroidism: a case report
Introduction Primary growth hormone resistance or growth hormone insensitivity syndrome, also known as Laron syndrome, is a hereditary disease caused by deletions or different types of mutations in the growth hormone receptor gene or by post-receptor ...

Lapatinib in the Treatment of Hormone Receptor-Positive/ErbB2-Positive Breast Cancer [PDF]
In women with estrogen receptor(ER)- and ErbB2(HER2)-positive breast cancer, a vicious cycle is established between ER mechanisms of action and the growth factor receptor network, leading to enhanced cell proliferation and endocrine resistance.

A study of association between genetic markers in candidate genes and reproductive traits in one generation of a commercial broiler breeder hen population [PDF]
Markers of alleles for three physiological candidate genes for reproductive traits, growth hormone (GHR), gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GNRHR) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) were assessed for the association with the total egg production, number of ...
