The Effect of Estradiol and Testosterone Levels Alone or in Combination with Their Receptors in Predicting the Severity of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: A Cohort Study [PDF]
Background: Developing a practical method to predict active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in patients with inactive/mild status at the onset of the disease could lead to appropriate treatment that ultimately prevents future relapses. The development

Androgen receptor expression in hypospadias
Introduction: 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 ...

Androgen regulation of the androgen receptor coregulators [PDF]
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 Phosphorylation [PDF]
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.
