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

The CAG trinucleotide repeat length in the androgen receptor does not predict the early onset of prostate cancer [PDF]
Objective To relate the repeat length of the androgen-receptor CAG trinucleotide to the age of onset of prostate cancer, stage and grade of disease. Patients and methods After obtaining ethical approval, 265 patients with locally confined or locally ...

Direct action through the Sertoli cells is essential for androgen stimulation of spermatogenesis [PDF]
Androgens act to stimulate spermatogenesis through androgen receptors (AR) on the Sertoli cells and peritubular myoid cells (PTM). Specific ablation of the AR in either cell type will cause a severe disruption of spermatogenesis.
