Thyrotropin levels associated with Alzheimer's disease risk in women
Women with low or high levels of the hormone thyrotropin, which affects thyroid gland function and thyroid hormone levels, appear to have a higher risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, according to a report in the July 28 issue of Archives of Internal Medicine, one of the JAMA/Archives journals. view more (2008-07-29)

Children with Down syndrome are more likely than their unaffected siblings to have higher levels of a hormone associated with obesity, according to pediatric researchers. view more (2007-10-29)
Why a common treatment for prostate cancer ultimately fails
Some of the drugs given to many men during their fight against prostate cancer can actually spur some cancer cells to grow, researchers have found. The findings were published online this week in a pair of papers in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. view more (2008-08-22)
BUSM researchers propose a relationship between androgen deficiency and cardiovascular disease
Researchers from Boston University School of Medicine (BUSM) in collaboration with researchers from Lahey Clinic Northshore, Peabody, Mass., believe that androgen deficiency might be the underlying cause for a variety of common clinical conditions, including diabetes, erectile dysfunction, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease (CVD). view more (2009-09-28)
Outsmarting cancer - new results from novel enzyme inhibitors
Smart drugs that can break the chain of command between enzymes and the genes involved in cell division and cell death are a new way forward in tackling breast cancer, according to Dr Stephen Johnston, a consultant oncologist from The Royal Marsden Hospital, London, UK. He was speaking at a news briefing on Thursday (21 March) at the 3rd European... view more... (2002-03-19)
Parasite growth hormone pushes human cells to liver cancer
Scientists have found that the human liver fluke (Opisthorchis viverrini) contributes to the development of bile duct (liver) cancer by secreting granulin, a growth hormone that is known to cause uncontrolled growth of cells. view more (2009-10-09)
Linchpin gene may be useful target for new breast cancer therapies
University of Iowa researchers have discovered a gene that plays a linchpin role in the ability of breast cancer cells to respond to estrogen. The finding may lead to improved therapies for hormone-responsive breast cancers and may explain differences in the effectiveness of current treatments. view more (2007-09-17)
New molecular regulators of hyperthyroidism and goiter

Stress, hormones, and UN soldiers
It is possible to measure levels of the stress hormone cortisol not only in blood but also in saliva. Linköping physician Elisabeth Aardal-Eriksson has further developed a saliva test to make it reliable and easy to use, not only in hospitals but also in the field. The findings are presented in a dissertation at Linköping University,... view more... (2002-02-22)
Disabling mouse enzyme increases fertility
Changing the sugars attached to a hormone produced in the pituitary gland increased fertility levels in mice nearly 50 percent, a research group at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis has found. view more (2008-05-19)
IMS reaction to report on breast cancer incidence in 2003 in US
A special report in the April 19 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine [1] brings initial analysis of data from the National Cancer Institute's Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Result (SEER) registries, showing that the incidence of breast cancer in women in the US fell by 6.7% in 2003, and stayed at the same level in 2004. view more (2007-04-19)
Unique estrogen receptor linked to metastatic breast cancer
Breast cancer awareness month may have passed, but researchers remain focused on the disease with a new study showing that a unique estrogen receptor found in breast cancer tumors is a predictor of tumor size and metastases. view more (2006-11-01)
Study Demonstrates Safety of Oral Contraceptives in Women with Lupus
In a major study, women with either inactive or stable systemic lupus erythematosus (lupus) - a disease in which the body's immune system mistakenly attacks and damages healthy tissues of the skin, joints and internal organs - were able to take oral contraceptives without increased risk of flares, or periods of increased disease activity, that... view more...

Research shows skeleton to be endocrine organ
Bones are typically thought of as calcified, inert structures, but researchers at Columbia University Medical Center have now identified a surprising and critically important novel function of the skeleton. view more (2007-08-10)
Suppressing growth hormone in early adulthood may prevent cancer
A modest suppression of growth hormone and related compounds beginning in early adulthood may delay the onset or progression of several types of cancer, researchers from Wake Forest University School of Medicine and other centers reported today at ENDO 2005, the annual meeting of the Endocrine Society, in San Diego. view more (2005-06-06)
Soy phytoestrogens may block estrogen effects
Research in monkeys suggests that the natural plant estrogens found in soy do not increase markers of breast cancer risk in postmenopausal women. view more (2006-01-16)
