Bio
Focusing on the ovaries, he and his research group were the first to produce an immortal line of ovarian cells that could be grown in culture and that would continue to respond to gonadotropic hormones – hormones that cause the ova to mature. Such cell lines are still used in labs around the world today.
Early on, Amsterdam began working with physicians and patients, including research on human tissue, in a period in which such collaborations were not standard in scientific research. In recent years, he discovered two unique molecules that originate in the embryo, and which in combination can promote the growth of ovarian cancer. In the future, this insight may lead to better treatments for ovarian cancer, even some that could prevent its growth before symptoms appear. It has since been observed by Amsterdam that a similar combination of factors may be involved also in pancreatic cancer.
