Androgen regulation of the androgen receptor coregulators [PDF]
Abstract Background The critical role of the androgen receptor (AR) in the development of prostate cancer is well recognized. The transcriptional activity of AR is partly regulated by coregulatory proteins. It has been suggested that these coregulators could also be important in the progression of prostate cancer. The

Androgens and the breast [PDF]
Androgens have important physiological effects in women while at the same time they may be implicated in breast cancer pathologies. However, data on the effects of androgens on mammary epithelial proliferation and/or breast cancer incidence are not in full agreement.

Firing patterns of gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons are sculpted by their biologic state [PDF]
Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons form the final pathway for the central neuronal control of fertility. GnRH is released in pulses that vary in frequency in females, helping drive hormonal changes of the reproductive cycle.

Transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of human androgen receptor expression by androgen. [PDF]
Autoregulation is a control mechanism common to several proteins of the steroid/thyroid hormone receptor superfamily. In this work the effect of androgens and antiandrogens on the expression of the human androgen receptor (hAR) in prostate and breast ...

Characterisation of the androgen regulation of glycine N-methyltransferase in prostate cancer cells [PDF]
The development and growth of prostate cancer is dependent on androgens; thus, the identification of androgen-regulated genes in prostate cancer cells is vital for defining the mechanisms of prostate cancer development and progression and developing new ...
