Growth hormone, IGF-I and cancer. Less intervention to avoid cancer? More intervention to prevent cancer?

The Journal of endocrinology - 1 Sept 1999

Holly J M, Gunnell D J, Davey Smith G

Abstract excerpt

The GH/IGF-I axis has a clearly established role in somatic growth regulation and there is much evidence suggesting that it can play a contributing role in neoplastic tissue growth; a number of recent epidemiological reports indicate that it may also be an important determinant of cancer incidence. Whilst there have been previous reports of changes to the axis in patients with established cancers, these new...
