HGH May Cause Cancers To Grow
May 26, 2009 | Leave a Comment
 Recent data suggest that the increased levels of growth factors such as insulin-like growth hormones (or insulin) and erythropoietin, which is also in the family of growth factor and stimulates red blood cell growth, both increase growth of already-present cancers.
Some of the newer cancer-fighting drugs actually work by inhibiting certain growth factors.
I know of and can find no data specifically on human growth hormone (HGH)Â and cancer, but my assessment of the known data on other growth factors makes me worry that human growth factor would not help cancer patients and may actually be harmful.

New Link In Liver Cancer Has HGH Connection
March 30, 2009 | Leave a Comment
Liver damage can be triggered by various insults, including hepatitis infection or alcohol-induced cirrhosis.
In severe cases, this damage can lead to cancer. A new study by researchers at the National Institutes of Health and Osaka University reveals how one protein helps decide the fate of damaged livers in mice. The study will be published online on March 30th in the Journal of Experimental Medicine.
Liver cells rely on signals triggered by growth hormone to survive and multiply—functions that go haywire in cancer. Normally, growth hormone (hgh) works by activating a signaling network inside liver cells that includes a protein called STAT5. When the researchers removed STAT5 from liver cells, cancer ensued.
