Androgen regulation of the androgen receptor coregulators [PDF]

BMC Cancer, 2008
Abstract Background The critical role of the androgen receptor (AR) in the development of prostate cancer is well recognized. The transcriptional activity of AR is partly regulated by coregulatory proteins. It has been suggested that these coregulators could also be important in the progression of prostate cancer. The

Androgen receptor mutations [PDF]

The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1995
Male sexual differentiation and development proceed under direct control of androgens. Androgen action is mediated by the intracellular androgen receptor, which belongs to the superfamily of ligand-dependent transcription factors. At least three pathological situations are associated with abnormal androgen receptor structure and function: androgen ...

Androgen Receptor Phosphorylation [PDF]

Endocrine Research, 1993
Phosphorylation of transcription factors plays an important role in regulation of gene expression. DNA-binding, transactivation activity, and subcellular trafficking of specific transcription factors have been shown to be regulated by phosphorylation/dephosphorylation.

Androgen receptors in meningiomas [PDF]

Cancer, 1988
Meningiomas have been hypothesized as being hormonally sensitive on the basis of epidemiologic, clinical, and laboratory evidence. Eight meningiomas were assayed and found to have androgen-binding protein. Three tumors were subjected to in vitro growth studies in varying concentrations of dihydrotestosterone (DHT).

Androgen Receptor and Mechanism of Androgen Action

Annals of Medicine, 1993
Androgen receptor is the intracellular protein that mediates biological actions of physiological androgens (testosterone and 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone). Androgen receptor belongs to a large family of ligand-dependent proteins whose function is to modulate expression of genes and gene networks in a cell- and tissue-specific manner.

Androgen receptor abnormalities [PDF]

The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1991
The human androgen receptor is a member of the superfamily of steroid hormone receptors. Proper functioning of this protein is a prerequisite for normal male sexual differentiation and development. The cloning of the human androgen receptor cDNA and the elucidation of the genomic organization of the corresponding gene has enabled us to study androgen ...

Phosphorylation of androgen receptor isoforms [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 2004
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.

Androgens and androgen receptor signaling in prostate tumorigenesis [PDF]

Journal of Molecular Endocrinology, 2014
Androgens and androgen receptor (AR) signaling are necessary for prostate development and homeostasis. AR signaling also drives the growth of nearly all prostate cancer cells. The role of androgens and AR signaling has been well characterized in metastatic prostate cancer, where it has been shown that prostate cancer cells are exquisitely adept at ...

Androgen receptor expression in hypospadias

Journal of Indian Association of Pediatric Surgeons, 2020
The exact mechanism behind the development of hypospadias is unclear. Research studies on androgen receptor (AR) expression are controversial with results stating all possible outcomes - AR elevated, similar, or reduced when compared to normal.The aim is to study the AR expression and hormone levels in hypospadias patients and compare them with ...

CCDC80 suppresses high‐grade serous ovarian cancer migration via negative regulation of B7‐H3

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PAX8 is a lineage‐specific master regulator of transcription in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) progression. We show for the first time that PAX8 facilitates proliferation and metastasis by repressing the cell autonomous tumor suppressor CCDC80 and inducing B7‐H3 expression.
