The Roles of Androgen Receptors and Androgen-Binding Proteins in Nongenomic Androgen Actions [PDF]

Molecular Endocrinology, 2002
AbstractThe biological activity of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone is thought to occur predominantly through binding to the androgen receptor (AR), a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily that functions as a ligand-activated transcription factor.

A STUDY OF THE ANDROGENIC ACTIVITY OF ANTI-ANDROGEN

Folia Endocrinologica Japonica, 1990
To investigate the androgenic activity of steroidal and nonsteroidal anti-androgens, the effect of several compounds on some parameters as an androgenic activity was measured in the ventral prostate (VP) and seminal vesicle gland (SV) of castrated male rats.

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.
