Locally Expressed LHRH Receptors Mediate the Oncostatic and Antimetastatic Activity of LHRH Agonists on Melanoma Cells [PDF]
Malignant melanoma is a tumor known for its uncontrollable growth and aggressive metastatic behavior. The mean survival time for patients with a metastatic melanoma is estimated to be less than 6 months, tumor cells being refractory to the conventional chemotherapy.

Role of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) in ovarian cancer
The expression of GnRH (GnRH-I, LHRH) and its receptor as a part of an autocrine regulatory system of cell proliferation has been demonstrated in a number of human malignant tumors, including cancers of the ovary.

Changes in pituitary and ovarian LHRH receptors after active immunization of female rats against LH or LHRH [PDF]
The hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis of female rats was disrupted at the site of LHRH stimulation by active immunization against LHRH or at the site of LH action by active immunization against LH. Active immunization against LH was associated with an increase in pituitary LHRH receptors to levels comparable to control values at pro-oestrus whereas ...
