Hormone Dependent Cancers

A hormone-sensitive cancer, or hormone-dependent cancer, is one that is dependent on a hormone for growth and or survival. For instance breast cancer, which is depending on estrogens like estradiol, and prostate cancer, which is depending on androgens like testosterone. Hormones play significant roles in our body; they're also effective in some sorts of cancer by promoting some tumors grow and spread, which are so-called hormone-sensitive or hormone-dependent cancer. If a tumor is hormone-sensitive, it means that there are exceptional proteins called receptors on cells surface. When the hormones tie up the matched receptor, it results in growth and spread of cancer cells.
