Recent Developments in Androgen Receptor Antagonists

Archiv der Pharmazie, 2015
The androgen receptor (AR), a ligand‐dependent transcription factor that regulates the expression of a series of downstream target genes after the binding of androgens, has been a target for the discovery of drugs used to treat prostate cancer. Prostate cancer always progresses to castration‐resistant prostate cancer after a period of androgen ...

Recent Androgen Receptor Antagonists in Prostate Cancer

Mini-Reviews in Medicinal Chemistry, 2014
Androgen receptor has been shown to promote prostate cell growth and carcinogenesis of prostate cancer by up-regulating its target genes. Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone are two major hormones which bind to and activate androgen receptor. Targeting both the androgen receptor and the enzymes catalyzing the biosynthesis of testosterone and ...

Androgen Receptor Antagonists (Antiandrogens) Structure-Activity Relationships

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2000
Prostate cancer, acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia are well recognized to depend upon an excess or increased sensitivity to androgens or to be at least sensitive to androgens. It thus seems logical to use antiandrogens as therapeutic agents to prevent androgens from binding to the androgen receptor.

Androgen Receptor Antagonists

2010
Androgen receptor (AR) antagonists used clinically include steroidal (cyproterone acetate) and nonsteroidal antagonists (bicalutamide, flutamide, and nilutamide), with the latter nonsteroidal compounds being the only ones in general use in the United States. AR antagonists are used as single agents or in conjunction with surgical or medical castration (

Classification and Virtual Screening of Androgen Receptor Antagonists

Journal of Chemical Information and Modeling, 2010
Computational tools, such as quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR), are highly useful as screening support for prioritization of substances of very high concern (SVHC). From the practical point of view, QSAR models should be effective to pick out more active rather than inactive compounds, expressed as sensitivity in classification works.

Peptide Antagonist of the Androgen Receptor

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2010
Androgen receptor (AR) is a steroid hormone receptor that is activated by endogenous androgens, mainly testosterone and 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (5alpha-DHT). AR is also an important drug target, and AR antagonists (antiandrogens) have been widely used for prostate cancer therapy.
