Description générale

Androgen receptor (AR) gene is mapped to human chromosome Xq11- Xq12 and contains PGK1P1 pseudogene. AR gene is extended over ~5-10 million bp of genomic DNA.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

AR (dihydrotestosterone receptor); testicular feminization; spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy; Kennedy disease. The androgen receptor is an androgen-activated member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of transcription factors. Signaling by the androgen receptor plays a key role in proper development and function of male reproductive organs. The androgen receptor gene is more than 90 kb long and codes for a protein that has 3 major functional domains: the N-terminal domain, DNA-binding domain, and androgen-binding domain. The protein functions as a steroid-hormone activated transcription factor. Upon binding the hormone ligand, the receptor dissociates from accessory proteins, translocates into the nucleus, dimerizes, and then stimulates transcription of androgen responsive genes. This gene contains 2 polymorphic trinucleotide repeat segments that encode polyglutamine and polyglycine tracts in the N-terminal transactivation domain of its protein. Expansion of the polyglutamine tract causes spinal bulbar muscular atrophy (Kennedy disease). Mutations in this gene are also associated with complete androgen insensitivity (CAIS). Two alternatively spliced variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described. The androgen receptor (AR) has been shown to play a critical role in the development and progression of the prostate cancer.

Androgens remain abused performance-enhancing drugs in sports. Technologies based on mass spectrometry can detect all forms of androgens but fail if the androgen represents a novel structure. A bioassay detects androgens based on function rather than structure. To date, there

1,25(OH)2D3 inhibits the growth of prostate cancer cells; previous reports suggest that 1,25(OH)2D3 actions in LNCaP prostate cancer cells are androgen dependent. This is due in part to the observation that the androgen receptor (AR) antagonist, Casodex, modestly inhibits LNCaP

To study the mechanisms whereby androgen-dependent tumors relapse in patients undergoing androgen blockade, we developed a novel progression model for prostate cancer. The PC346C cell line, established from a transurethral resection of a primary tumor, expresses wild-type (wt) androgen receptor

Gene regulation in eukaryotes requires the coordinate interaction of chromatin-modulating proteins with specific transcription factors such as the androgen receptor. Gene activation and repression is specifically regulated by histone methylation status at distinct lysine residues. Here we show that lysine-specific
