Paraphilia is a psychiatric disease that has been difficult to cure. However, recently developed therapeutic methods hold promise. The patient was a 20-yr-old male with chief complaints of continuous masturbation, genital exposure, and aggressive behavior that started 2 yr ago. We administered leuprorelin 3.6 mg intramuscular injection per month, a depot gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogue...
The goal of our study was to assess whether the total dose of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) administered affects the success of an in-vitro fertilization (IVF) programme. A retrospective analysis was performed on a total of 72 IVF cycles carried out on 70 patients with different causes of infertility included in our assisted reproduction programme. Cycles were divided into two...
The mechanisms by which a GnRH analogue, leuprorelin acetate (LA), antagonizes the mitogenic effect of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) or epidermal growth factor (EGF) in prostate cancer cells is poorly understood. The mitogen-activated protein kinase system has a central role in growth regulation and, for this reason, we investigated the involvement of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1...
OBJECTIVE Montelukast, a selective antagonist of Type 1 cysteinyl leukotriene receptors (CysLT1Rs), antagonizes the proinflammatory and proasthmatic activities of CysLT1Rs. We investigated the effect of montelukast on a surgically induced endometriosis rat model. STUDY DESIGN Thirty-two sexually mature, cycling, female Wistar-Albino rats, in which endometriotic implants were surgically induce...
The measurement of ovarian volume has been recently shown to predict follicular response in in-vitro fertilization (IVF), specifically a lower number of retrieved oocytes with decreasing ovarian volume. This test appears to be better than basal follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) as a prognostic measure of ovarian reserve. However, the effect of pituitary desensitization on ovarian volume has no...
INTRODUCTION Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogs is a standard treatment for advanced prostate cancer. GnRH analog therapy can reduce testosterone to "castrate" levels, historically defined as <50 ng/dL. With the advent of newer assays, a lower threshold of <20 ng/dL has recently been proposed. We report the results of a retrospective analysis o...
BACKGROUND Our aim was to evaluate the long-term effectiveness and safety of GnRH agonist plus raloxifene administration in women with symptomatic uterine leiomyomas. METHODS Fifty pre-menopausal women with uterine leiomyomas were treated with leuprolide acetate depot at dose of 3.75 mg/28 days and raloxifene hydrochloride at 60 mg/day for 18 cycles. At admission and after each six cycles of ...
PURPOSE Leuprorelin is a well known luteinizing hormone releasing hormone agonist. However, there are insufficient data on the efficacy and safety of high dose leuprorelin acetate, especially in Asian patients with prostate cancer. We aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of leuprorelin acetate 22.5 mg administered at three-month intervals in patients with prostate cancer. MATERIALS AN...
Hormonal deprivation therapy is well established for the treatment of locally advanced and metastatic prostate cancer, as well as the adjuvant treatment of some patients with localized disease. Long-acting gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists have become a mainstay of androgen deprivation therapy, due to their efficacy, tolerability, and convenience of use. One-month, 3-month, and 4-m...
Androgen-independent prostate carcinoma is characterized by a high proliferation rate and by a strong metastatic behavior. We have previously shown that GnRH agonists exert a direct and specific inhibitory action on the proliferation of androgen-independent prostate cancer cells (DU 145). These compounds mainly act by interfering with the mitogenic activity of growth factors, such as the insuli...
