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.

Receptors for the luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone [LHRH, also known as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH)] can be regarded as an ideal target for a personalized medicine approach in cancer therapy. LHRH receptors are expressed in about 80% of human endometrial and ovarian cancers, 86% of prostate cancer, and about 50% of breast cancers ...

Comparison of mechanisms of action of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) antagonist cetrorelix and LHRH agonist triptorelin on the gene expression of pituitary LHRH receptors in rats [PDF]
The mechanisms through which luteinizing hormone (LH)-releasing hormone (LHRH) antagonists suppress pituitary gonadotroph functions and LHRH-receptor (LHRH-R) expression are incompletely understood. Consequently, we investigated the direct effect of LHRH antagonist cetrorelix in vitro on the expression of the ...

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 ...

The presence of LHRH‐like receptors in Dunning R3327H prostate tumors
Quantitative analyses of LH‐RH‐like membrane receptors were performed in five tumors from the transplantable Dunning R3372H rat prostatic adenocarcinoma. The binding of D‐Trp6‐LH‐RH, an agonist of LH‐RH, was observed in all 5 tumors. The antagonist [Ac‐Dp‐Cl‐Phe1,2,D‐Trp3,D‐Lys6,D‐Ala10]‐LH‐RH was bound to 4 tumors.

Uveal melanoma (UM) is the most common malignant tumor of the eye. Recently, we have established that 46% of UM specimens express LHRH receptors. This finding supports the idea of a LHRH receptor-targeted therapy of UM patients. Cytotoxic analog of LHRH,
