Hormonal Carcinogenesis
The aim of our laboratory is to study the mechanisms involved in hormone dependent breast cancer growth. We have focused our studies investigating the role of progesterone receptors in tumor progression. These studies led us to propose that antiprogestins (drugs able to block progesterone receptor action) could be used as therapeutic tools in selected groups of breast cancer patients.
