Samples of tumor tissue from 11 patients with pancreatic carcinoma were studied for cytoplasmic receptors of androgens and estrogens. Androgen receptors were identified in most tumors suggesting hormone-dependent nature of pancreatic cancer. Application of antiandrogens for pancreatic cancer treatment is discussed.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D010190 Pancreatic Neoplasms Tumors or cancer of the PANCREAS. Depending on the types of ISLET CELLS present in the tumors, various hormones can be secreted: GLUCAGON from PANCREATIC ALPHA CELLS; INSULIN from PANCREATIC BETA CELLS; and SOMATOSTATIN from the SOMATOSTATIN-SECRETING CELLS. Most are malignant except the insulin-producing tumors (INSULINOMA).
