An autocrine role for pituitary GABA: Activation of GABA-B receptors and regulation of growth hormone levels [PDF]
There is increasing evidence suggesting that the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a local factor involved in the regulation of endocrine organs.

Triple negative breast cancers express receptors for LHRH and are potential therapeutic targets for cytotoxic LHRH-analogs, AEZS 108 and AEZS 125 [PDF]
Background Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a distinct subtype of breast cancer burdened with a dismal prognosis due to the lack of effective therapeutic agents.

Targeted chemotherapy for triple-negative breast cancers via LHRH receptor [PDF]
Triple-negative breast cancer does not express estrogen and progesterone receptors and there is no over-expression/amplification of the HER2-neu gene. Therefore, this subtype of breast cancer lacks the benefits of specific therapies which target these ...

Almost all prostate cancers respond to androgen deprivation treatment but many recur. We postulated that risk of hormone escape--frequency and delay--are influenced by hormone therapy modalities.

Single‐nuclei RNA sequencing reveals heterogeneity within developing GnRH3 neurons in zebrafish
Abstract Gonadotropin‐releasing hormone (GnRH) is a central regulator of vertebrate reproduction regulating pituitary gonadotropins. In zebrafish, GnRH3 serves as the hypophysiotropic isoform. Its neurons develop by migrating from the nasal placode to the hypothalamus, forming several distinct subpopulations along the migratory path.

Discovery of LHRH and development of LHRH analogs for prostate cancer treatment [PDF]
The discovery, isolation, elucidation of structure, synthesis, and initial testing of the neuropeptide hypothalamic luteinizing hormone‐releasing hormone (LHRH), which regulates reproduction, is briefly described.

Changes in pituitary and ovarian LHRH receptors after active immunization of female rats against LH or LHRH [PDF]
Summary. 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 ...

ABSTRACT Background Unfavorable intermediate‐risk prostate cancer (UIR‐PCa) represents a biologically heterogeneous subgroup with a higher risk of recurrence compared with favorable intermediate‐risk disease. Contemporary management frequently includes dose‐escalated radiotherapy (RT) combined with short‐term androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Whether

Castration Resistance Accelerates Prostate Cancer Kinetics
ABSTRACT Background Prostate cancer can be an indolent disease with which patients can live for many years. Thus, an understanding of how therapy and its ensuing resistance affect prostate cancer kinetics may guide efforts to determine optimal timing of therapy initiation.
