GORDON RESEARCH CONFERENCE ON HORMONAL CARCINOGENESIS

会议的目的是为互动提供一个论坛 在代表广泛跨学科的科学家之间 其研究定义了荷尔蒙研究前沿的兴趣 致癌。会议在一个促进自由和自由的环境中举行 信任数据和新想法的交换。这次会议将集中讨论 以下是与当前研究相关的科学领域 荷尔蒙致癌。从生物学中提取最好的模型和 化学，参与者将(1)讨论潜在的机制 与乳腺癌有关，(2)检查相关基因的调控 和类固醇激素代谢的酶学，(3)关键 评估细胞分化缺陷在肿瘤形成中的作用，(4) 考虑癌症的分子遗传学及其对荷尔蒙的影响 致癌，(5)定义雄激素的肿瘤潜能和 前列腺发育与癌症的细胞生物学，以及(6)深入研究 正负向信号对细胞增殖的调控 这些信号与癌基因和肿瘤发生的关系。

The purpose of the conference is to provide a forum for the interaction between scientists representing a broad spectrum of interdisciplinary interests whose studies define the leading edge of research on hormonal carcinogenesis. The conference is held in a setting which fosters free and trusting exchange of data and new ideas. The conference will focus on the following scientific areas that are relevant to current research on hormonal carcinogenesis. Drawing the best models from biology and chemistry, the participants will (1) discuss the underlying mechanisms associated with breast cancer, (2) examine the regulation of genes involved with, and the enzymology of, steroid hormone metabolism, (3) critically evaluate the role of cell differentiation defects in neoplasia, (4) consider the molecular genetics of cancer and its implications for hormonal carcinogenesis, (5) define the neoplastic potential of androgens and the cellular biology of prostate development and cancer, and (6) study in-depth the control of cell proliferation by positive and negative signals and the association of these signals with oncogenes and oncogenesis.
