Receptors for luteinizing hormone releasing hormone expressed on human renal cell carcinomas can be used for targeted chemotherapy with cytotoxic luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analogues.
PURPOSE To determine the expression of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH) receptors in specimens and cell lines of human renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and to evaluate the antitumor efficacy of targeted therapy with a cytotoxic analogue of LHRH, AN-207, in vivo. AN-207, consisting of [D-Lys(6)] LHRH linked to a cytotoxic radical, 2-pyrrolinodoxorubicin (AN-201), binds with high affinity t...
متن کاملHuman malignant melanomas express receptors for luteinizing hormone releasing hormone allowing targeted therapy with cytotoxic luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analogue.
Cytotoxic analogue of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH), AN-207, binds with high affinity to LHRH receptors and can be targeted to tumors expressing these receptors. We investigated the expression of LHRH receptors in surgical specimens of human malignant melanoma and evaluated the effects of AN-207 in models of human melanoma. Human melanoma specimens derived from primary tumors or ...

We read with great interest the Highlight Review by Dr C GruÈ ndker entitled `Cytotoxic luteinizing hormonereleasing hormone conjugates and their use in gynecological cancer therapy' in the European Journal of Endocrinology (1). This excellent article provides a detailed description of recent developments in the field of targeted chemotherapy based on luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-R...
متن کاملLuteinizing hormone-releasing hormone antagonists.
BACKGROUND Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) plays a central role in the vertebrate reproduction by regulating gonadal activity. Based on its binding to pituitary LH-RH receptors, as well as to LH-RH receptors expressed on cancer cells, LH-RH agonists and antagonists have been developed for different therapeutic applications. OBJECTIVE/METHOD Here we give an overview of the most r...
