The dermal papilla, located in the hair follicle, expresses androgen receptor and plays an important role in hair growth. Androgen/Androgen receptor actions have been implicated in the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia, but the exact mechanism is not well known. Recent studies suggest that balding dermal papilla cells exhibit premature senescence, upregulation of p16(INK4a), and nuclear exp...
Prostate cancer is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Normal prostate tissue is regulated by androgens, which activate the androgen receptor, a nuclear receptor transcription factor. Most prostate tumors retain androgen dependence, therefore, current therapies for advanced prostate cancer either reduce androgen levels or prevent binding to the androgen receptor. Despite t...
The androgen receptor undergoes nuclear import in response to ligand, but the mechanism by which it undergoes nuclear export is poorly understood. We developed a permeabilized cell assay to characterize nuclear export of the androgen receptor in LNCaP prostate cancer cells. We found that nuclear export of endogenous androgen receptor can be stimulated by short double-stranded DNA oligonucleotid...
The androgen receptor has a subset of target DNA sequences, which are not recognized by any other steroid receptors. The androgen selectivity of these sequences was proposed to be the consequence of the ability of the androgen receptor to dimerize on direct repeats of 5'-TGTTCT-3'-like sequences. This is in contrast with the classical non-selective elements consisting of inverted repeats of the...
The growth of the majority of prostate tumors is androgen-dependent, for which the presence of a functional androgen receptor is a prerequisite. Tumor growth can be inhibited by blockade of androgen receptor action. However, this inhibition is transient. To study the role of the androgen receptor in androgen-dependent and androgen-independent prostate tumor cell growth, androgen receptor mRNA e...
Prostate cancer cells depend on androgens and the androgen receptor (AR) for survival. However, after androgen ablation therapy, tumors relapse to an androgen-refractory state. To determine whether the androgen receptor is critical for proliferation of androgen-refractory prostate cancer cells, we disrupted the activity of the androgen receptor with an antibody and an AR mRNA hammerhead ribozym...
background: the aim of this study was to evaluate over expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (egfr) gene in localized prostate cancers and determine its relation with clinical and pathological factors affecting the progression of the disease. methods: in the tissue samples of the patients with prostate cancer undergoing radical prostatectomy, egfr expression was evaluated by immunohist...

Kinases can phosphorylate and regulate androgen receptor activity during prostate cancer progression. In particular, we showed that glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta phosphorylates the androgen receptor, thereby inhibiting androgen receptor-driven transcription. Conversely, the glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta inhibitor lithium chloride suppressed the glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta-mediated phosp...
PURPOSE Prostate cancer that recurs during androgen deprivation therapy is referred to as androgen-independent. High levels of expression of androgen receptor and androgen receptor-regulated genes in recurrent prostate cancer suggest a role for androgen receptor and its ligands in prostate cancer recurrence. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Recurrent prostate cancer specimens from 22 men whose prostate ca...
