Growth hormone and cancer

26 Jun 2013

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Animals born with a deficiency in the cell surface receptor for growth hormone (GH) have a significantly reduced risk of developing cancer. Conversely, increased expression levels of GH and the GH receptor (GHR) are detectable in a variety of different human cancers. Here we discuss recent literature contributing to our understanding of the field. RECENT FINDINGS: In addition to animal...
