Activins and inhibins belong to the transforming growth factor- (TGF-) superfamily of multifunctional cytokines that bind to transmembrane receptors with serine/threonine kinase activity. In this study, we characterized the levels of expression of 3 activin/inhibin subunits (A, B, ␣), and 2 type

Lactogenic hormones which bind to the PRLR are likely to be growth-stimulatory in human breast-cancer cells. Oestrogen and progesterone control cellular expression of the PRLR however, elevated androgen levels in some breast-cancer patients raised the possibility that androgens may also influence br
