## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Antagonists of growth hormoneβreleasing hormone (GHβRH) can inhibit the proliferation of various tumors either indirectly through the suppression of the pituitary growth hormone/hepatic insulinβlike growth factor I (__IGFβI__) axis and the lowering of serum __IGFβI__ conc
Experiments have been performed to clarify whether LHRH agonists might decrease growth of hormone-unresponsive prostate cancer in vivo. Male nude mice were injected s.c. with the human androgen-independent prostate tumor DU 145 cells; osmotic minipumps releasing the LHRH agonist Zoladex (LHRH-A) for
