Abstract Metformin, the first line pharmacotherapy for type 2 diabetes has demonstrated favourable effects in prostate cancer (PCa) across a range of studies evaluating PCa patient outcomes amongst metformin users. However, a lack of rigorously conducted prospective studies has stalled clinical use in this setting.

Characterisation of the androgen regulation of glycine N-methyltransferase in prostate cancer cells [PDF]
The development and growth of prostate cancer is dependent on androgens; thus, the identification of androgen-regulated genes in prostate cancer cells is vital for defining the mechanisms of prostate cancer development and progression and developing new ...

Phosphorylation of androgen receptor isoforms [PDF]
Phosphorylation of the human AR (androgen receptor) is directly correlated with the appearance of at least three AR isoforms on an SDS/polyacrylamide gel. However, it is still not clear to what extent phosphorylation is involved in the occurrence of isoforms, which sites are phosphorylated and what are the functions of these phosphosites.

Direct imaging of lateral movements of AMPA receptors inside synapses [PDF]
Trafficking of AMPA receptors in and out of synapses is crucial for synaptic plasticity. Previous studies have focused on the role of endo/exocytosis processes or that of lateral diffusion of extra-synaptic receptors. We have now directly imaged AMPAR movements inside and outside synapses of live neurons using single-molecule fluorescence microscopy ...

Abstract Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats‐associated protein (CRISPR/Cas9), an adaptive microbial immune system, has been exploited as a robust, accurate, efficient and programmable method for genome targeting and editing. This innovative and revolutionary technique can play a significant role in animal modeling, in vivo genome

Mechanism of antiandrogen action: Conformational changes of the receptor [PDF]
Androgen receptor mRNA was translated in vitro, and androgen- and antiandrogen-bound receptor complexes were studied using limited proteolytic digestion by trypsin.

Molecular and cellular paradigms of multidrug resistance in cancer
Abstract Background The acquisition of resistance to chemotherapy is a major hurdle in the successful application of cancer therapy. Several anticancer approaches, including chemotherapies, radiotherapy, surgery and targeted therapies are being employed for the treatment of cancer.

The detection of putative 18‐methyl‐19‐norandrosterone in a forensic urine sample has triggered a follow‐up investigation. Doping substances in the possession of the suspect were examined with regard to possible precursor steroids. 18‐Methyl‐19‐nortestosterone proved to be a suitable marker for reliable detection in doping analysis.
