Androgen receptor antagonists for prostate cancer therapy [PDF]
Androgen deprivation is the mainstay therapy for metastatic prostate cancer (PCa). Another way of suppressing androgen receptor (AR) signaling is via AR antagonists or antiandrogens. Despite being frequently prescribed in clinical practice, there is conflicting evidence concerning the role of AR antagonists in the management of PCa.

Anti-Androgen Receptor Therapies in Prostate Cancer: A Brief Update and Perspective
Prostate cancer is a major health issue in western countries and is the second leading cause of cancer death in American men. Prostate cancer depends on the androgen receptor (AR), a transcriptional factor critical for prostate cancer growth and ...

GLI1 confers profound phenotypic changes upon LNCaP prostrate cancer cells that include the acquisition of a hormone independent state [PDF]
The GLI (GLI1/GLI2) transcription factors have been implicated in the development and progression of prostate cancer although our understanding of how they actually contribute to the biology of these common tumours is limited.

Disruption of androgen metabolism, regulation and effects : involvement of steroidogenic enzymes [PDF]
Communication between organs and tissues is predominately controlled by hormones. Hormones regulate a vast variety of physiological and behavioural activities, including metabolism, growth and development, reproduction, sleep and mood.

Effect of small molecules modulating androgen receptor (SARMs) in human prostate cancer models.
The management of hormone-refractory prostate cancer represents a major challenge in the therapy of this tumor, and identification of novel androgen receptor antagonists is needed to render treatment more effective.
