The impact of point mutations in the human androgen receptor: classification of mutations on the basis of transcriptional activity. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Androgen receptor mediated signaling drives prostate cancer cell growth and survival. Mutations within the receptor occur infrequently in prostate cancer prior to hormonal therapy but become prevalent in incurable androgen independent and metastatic ...

Gene amplifications associated with the development of hormone- resistant prostate cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Purpose: Hormone resistance remains a significant clinical problem in prostate cancer with few therapeutic options. Research into mechanisms of hormone resistance is essential.

The androgen receptor and signal-transduction pathways in hormone-refractory prostate cancer. Part 1: modifications to the androgen receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Prostate cancer is the second most common male malignancy in the western world an increasing incidence in an ageing population. Treatment of advanced prostate cancer relies on androgen deprivation.

Transcriptional and posttranscriptional regulation of human androgen receptor expression by androgen. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
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 ...

Amplification of the androgen receptor may not explain the development of androgen-independent prostate cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Objective To examine the role of androgen receptor (AR) gene amplification and aneusomy of the X chromosome in the development of antiandrogen-resistant prostate cancer.

The androgen receptor and signal-transduction pathways in hormone-refractory prostate cancer. Part 2: androgen-receptor cofactors and bypass pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer related deaths in men from the western world. Treatment of prostate cancer has relied on androgen deprivation therapy for the past 50 years.

Dissecting the roles of the androgen receptor in prostate cancer from molecular perspectives

open access: yesTumor Biology, 2017
Androgen receptor plays a pivotal role in prostate cancer progression, and androgen deprivation therapy to intercept androgen receptor signal pathway is an indispensable treatment for most advanced prostate cancer patients to delay cancer progression ...

Androgen receptor expression in endometrial carcinoma and its correlation with clinicopathologic features

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2018
Objectives Recent evidence suggests a role of androgen receptor expression as a prognostic and therapeutic biomarker in endometrial carcinoma, therefore in the present study we aimed to evaluate the frequency of androgen expression in different subtypes ...

The androgen receptor CAG repeat polymorphism and modification of breast cancer risk in BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
<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 ...
