Expression and function of the ghrelin axis, including a novel preproghrelin isoform, in human breast cancer tissues and cell lines

1 Dec 2005

Abstract excerpt

While oestrogen, progesterone and growth factors, including growth hormone (GH), are clearly implicated in the pathogenesis of breast cancer, there is now evidence that the newly described ghrelin axis is also involved. The aims of this study were to investigate the expression of the ghrelin axis in breast cancer tissues and cell lines and to examine the effect of ghrelin on breast cancer cell proliferation in...
