AEZS-108: a targeted cytotoxic analog of LHRH for the treatment of cancers positive for LHRH receptors [PDF]
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 ...

Expression of LHRH receptors in prostate cancer cells prior to therapy, following castration, or following treatment with LHRH agonists [PDF]
5163 Background: In the treatment of advanced prostate cancer, the effects of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) agonists are mediated through the down-regulation of pituitary LHRH receptors, inhibiting the pituitary-gonadal axis.

Receptors for luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) in benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) as potential molecular targets for therapy with LHRH antagonist cetrorelix [PDF]
The majority of men will develop symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) after 70 years of age. Various studies indicate that antagonists of LHRH, such as cetrorelix, exert direct inhibitory effects on BPH mediated by specific LHRH receptors.

Triple-negative breast cancers express receptors for luteinizinghormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) and respond to LHRH antagonist cetrorelix withgrowth inhibition. [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the expression of receptors for luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) in human specimens of triple-negative breast cancers (TNBC).

Receptors for luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) expressed in human non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas can be targeted for therapy with the cytotoxic LHRH analogue AN-207 [PDF]
We determined by immunohistochemistry the presence of LHRH receptors in surgical specimens of human non-Hodgkin’s lymphomas (NHL) and investigated the expression of LHRH receptors in two human NHL cell lines, RL and HT by RT-PCR, Western blot and ...

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.

Receptors for luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) in Dunning R3327 prostate cancers and rat anterior pituitaries after treatment with a sustained delivery system of LHRH antagonist SB-75 [PDF]
Membrane receptors for LHRH were evaluated in Dunning R3327 prostate cancers and rat anterior pituitaries. The receptors were characterized both in untreated animals and after in vivo treatment with microcapsules of the agonist D-Trp6-LHRH and a ...
