TREATMENT OF PRECOCIOUS PUBERTY BY A LONG-ACTING GONADOTROPIN-RELEASING HORMONE ANALOGUE IN CHILDREN
The GnRH analogue has been shown to be effective in the treatment of precocious puberty when given as a daily subcutaneous injection. We studied the effectiveness of a long-acting GnRH analogue, Triptoreline, for the treatment of central precocity, by suppressing gonadotropin and estradiol secretion in three children with true precocious puberty. One month after single dose intramuscular i...
متن کاملGonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor-targeted gene therapy of gynecologic cancers.
The majority of ovarian, endometrial, and breast cancers express gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors. Apart from reproductive organs (ovaries, fallopian tubes, and uterus) that are normally removed during surgical therapy of ovarian or endometrial cancer, pituitary gonadotrophs also express GnRH receptors. The signal transduction pathway in tumor cells is basically different from th...
متن کاملMolecular structure of the human gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor gene.
GnRH receptors belong to the family of G protein-coupled receptor proteins and have been localized to the anterior pituitary, brain and reproductive organs as well as many steroid-dependent tumor tissues. Recently, cDNAs for the GnRH receptors of several species including the human have been cloned. To determine the structure of the gene encoding the human GnRH receptor, we isolated the recepto...
متن کاملGonadotropin-releasing hormone and gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor messenger ribonucleic acids expression in nontumorous and neoplastic pituitaries.
In the nontumorous pituitary, GnRH stimulates the release and synthesis of LH and FSH by gonadotroph cells via the GnRH receptor (GnRH-R). Little is known, however, about expression of GnRH and GnRH-R messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in nontumorous pituitary tissue and in adenomas. To learn more about the distribution and regulatory roles of GnRH and its receptor, we investigated the expression of both G...
متن کاملGonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor expression in endometrial cancer.
Several studies have previously reported the expression of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GnRHr) in cases of endometrial cancer. However, the relationship between GnRHr expression and a variety of clinicopathologic parameters remains unclear. This study was conducted with 141 endometrial cancer patients, all of whom had undergone operations between 1993 and 2002. Paraffin-embedded...
