    PIAS1 is a determinant of poor survival and acts as a positive feedback regulator of AR signaling through enhanced AR stabilization in prostate cancer

    Novel drugs like Abiraterone or Enzalutamide, which target androgen receptor (AR) signaling to improve androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), have been developed during the past years. However, the application of...

    Long-term biochemical evaluation of the androgen receptor pathway in males with disorders of sex development

    Disorders of sex (DSD) development represent a serious condition. Most of the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Disturbances within the androgen receptor (AR) pathway frequently account for 46 XY-DSDs. The...

    Dihydrotestosteron und die Rolle der 5α-Reduktasehemmer bei der benignen Prostatahyperplasie

    Die Entstehung der benignen Prostatahyperplasie (BPH) beruht auf 2 Faktoren: den testikulären Androgenen und dem Alterungsprozess. Das wichtigste Androgen in der Prostata ist das Dihydrotestosteron (DHT). Beim...

    Dihydrotestosterone and the concept of 5α-reductase inhibition in human benign prostatic hyperplasia

    The development of human benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) clearly requires a combination of testicular androgens and the ageing process. Although the role of androgens as the causative factor for human beni...

    Androgen signal transduction and prostatic carcinoma

    In the prostate, androgen action affects the growth of the gland, its morphology, and regulation of protein expression. Endocrine therapy of non-organ-confined tumors is based on the androgen dependence of the...

    Growth-stimulating effect of adrenal androgens on the R3327 Dunning prostatic carcinoma

    Adrenal androgens are discussed as a reason for tumor progression after androgen ablation therapy. Because of the difference in the secretion of androgens by the adrenals of humans and rats, there is no reliab...
