The androgen receptor CAG repeat polymorphism and modification of breast cancer risk in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers [PDF]
<p>Introduction: The androgen receptor (AR) gene exon 1 CAG repeat polymorphism encodes a string of 9–32 glutamines. Women with germline BRCA1 mutations who carry at least one AR allele with 28 or more repeats have been reported to have an earlier ...

Clinical, Hormonal and Genetics Features in patients with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome in Cytogenetic Laboratories in Semarang [PDF]
Androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS) is an X-linked disorder caused by impaired Androgen Receptor (AR) which is encoded in Xq 11-12. In this condition, although the androgen is produced sufficiently, but the peripheral masculinizing effect is blocked ...
