Androgen Receptor Phosphorylation [PDF]
Phosphorylation of transcription factors plays an important role in regulation of gene expression. DNA-binding, transactivation activity, and subcellular trafficking of specific transcription factors have been shown to be regulated by phosphorylation/dephosphorylation.

Androgen receptor accelerates premature senescence of human dermal papilla cells in association with DNA damage. [PDF]
The dermal papilla, located in the hair follicle, expresses androgen receptor and plays an important role in hair growth. Androgen/Androgen receptor actions have been implicated in the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia, but the exact mechanism is not

Filamin A cooperates with the androgen receptor in preventing skeletal muscle senescence
Aging induces a slow and progressive decrease in muscle mass and function, causing sarcopenia. Androgens control muscle trophism and exert important anabolic functions through the binding to the androgen receptor.

Androgen receptor status is a prognostic marker in non-basal triple negative breast cancers and determines novel therapeutic options. [PDF]
Triple negative breast cancers are a heterogeneous group of tumors characterized by poor patient survival and lack of targeted therapeutics. Androgen receptor has been associated with triple negative breast cancer pathogenesis, but its role in the ...

Does changing androgen receptor status during prostate cancer development impact upon cholesterol homeostasis? [PDF]
Recent evidence associates prostate cancer with high cholesterol levels, with cholesterol being an important raw material for cell-growth. Within the cell, cholesterol homeostasis is maintained by two master transcription factors: sterol-regulatory ...

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.
