Most prostate cancer cells depend on hormones to grow. Hormones such as gonadotropin releasing hormone(GnRH) or luteinizing hormone releasing hormone(LHRH) are released from the hypothalamus gland in the brain. When these hormones are released, they promote the testicles to produce the male hormone, testosterone. Androgen Deprivation Therapy(ADT) deprives prostate cancer cells of the male hormones(known as androgens) that cancer cells require in order to grow. ADT is the most common therapy used in men with advanced prostate cancer. 3, record 15, English, - androgen%20deprivation%20therapy

La plupart des cellules cancéreuses de la prostate ont besoin d’hormones pour croître. L’hypothalamus libère dans le cerveau des hormones telles que la gonadolibérine (gn-RH) ou l’hormone de libération de l’hormone lutéinisante (LHRH). Lorsqu’elles sont libérées, ces hormones incitent les testicules à produire l’hormone mâle testostérone. Le traitement antiandrogénique prive les cellules cancéreuses de la prostate des hormones mâles (appelées androgènes) dont elles ont besoin pour croître. Ce traitement est le traitement le plus souvent utilisé chez les hommes au stade avancé du cancer de la prostate. 3, record 15, French, - traitement%20antiandrog%C3%A9nique

Recent media reports have painted a relentlessly gloomy picture of the status of AIDS drug development. Yet much useful information on treatment emerged at the 10th International Conference on AIDS in Yokohama, Japan(August 7-12, 1994). Encouraging treatment developments presented in Yokohama include the following : Recombinant human growth hormone therapy significantly increases weight gain as represented by fat-free lean body mass among people with AIDS-related wasting. AZT treatment dramatically reduces the rate of HIV transmission from mother to infant. Acyclovir co-treatment with anti-HIV therapy significantly increases survival time among people with AIDS. Oral ganciclovir appears to be an effective primary prophylaxis for cytomegalovirus disease. The protease inhibitor drug saquinavir reduces viral load and increases CD4 cell counts significantly more when used in a triple combination with AZT and ddC compared to 2 double combinations(AZT plus ddC or saquinavir plus AZT). Quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR) and branched chain DNA(bDNA) testing for measuring HIV load is expected to become a major new tool to help guide individual treatment decisions and to evaluate anti-HIV therapies in clinical studies. 1, record 17, English, - AIDS%20drug

Background : Some patients with inflammatory bowel disease have anemia that is not responsive to iron administration and not due to folate or B12 deficiency. One hypothesis is that inflammatory cytokines decrease erythropoietin production and create resistance to the effect of erythropoietin, leading to a relative deficiency of this hormone. This study was a randomized, double-blind trial of recombinant erythropoietin(epoietin) in treating patients with inflammatory bowel disease and anemia refractory to iron therapy. 3, record 18, English, - recombinant%20erythropoietin
