The Role of Androgen Receptor Signaling in Ovarian Cancer
Emerging evidence has suggested that androgen receptor signaling plays an important role in ovarian cancer outgrowth. Specifically, androgen receptor activation appears to be associated with increased risks of developing ovarian cancer and inducing tumor

LncRNA-Dependent Mechanisms of Androgen Receptor-regulated Gene Activation Programs
Although recent studies have indicated roles of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in physiological aspects of cell-type determination and tissue homeostasis, their potential involvement in regulated gene transcription programs remains rather poorly ...

Clinical, Ovulatory and Histological Effect of a Postnatal Testosterone Treatment in Female Dogs
It has been described in some female mammalian species that postnatal androgenization causes reproductive structural and functional abnormalities. The objective of this study was to describe the clinical, ovulatory and genital effects of postnatal ...
