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 ...

The effect of different types of hepatic injury on the estrogen and androgen receptor activity of liver [PDF]
Mammalian liver contains receptors for both estrogens and androgens. Hepatic regeneration after partial hepatectomy in male rats is associated with a loss of certain male-specific hepatic characteristics.

Androgen Receptor Signaling in the Development of Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
Most prostate cancers are androgen-sensitive malignancies whose growths depend on the transcriptional activity of the androgen receptor (AR). In the 1940s, Charles Huggins demonstrated that the surgical removal of testes in men can result in a dramatic ...

NON-GENOMIC ANDROGEN ACTION REGULATES PROLIFERATIVE/MIGRATORY SIGNALLING IN STROMAL CELLS.
Prostate cancer is the major cause of cancer-related death among the male population of Western society, and androgen deprivation therapy represents the first line in prostate cancer treatment. However, although androgen receptor expression is maintained
