Role of Helicobacter pylori on differential expression of angiogenic markers in gastric adenocarcinoma
Animal studies showed that male gastric tissues respond more rapidly to Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) infection but the possible mechanisms remained unclear. There is no data about gender specific activity of Androgen receptor (AR) as an independent unfavorable prognostic factor in gastric cancer and its interactions with H.pylori and angiogenesis in both genders. To compare the pathogenesis o...
متن کاملDecrease in stromal androgen receptor associates with androgen-independent disease and promotes prostate cancer cell proliferation and invasion
Androgen receptor (AR) is expressed in both stromal and epithelial cells of the prostate. The majority of studies on AR expression and function in prostate cancer is focused on malignant epithelial cells rather than stromal cells. In this study, we examined the levels of stromal AR in androgen-dependent and -independent prostate cancer and the function of stromal AR in prostate cancer growth an...
متن کاملP-84: Characterization of Androgen Receptor Structure and Nucleocytoplasmic Shuttling of the Rice Field Eel
Background: Androgen receptor (AR) plays a critical role in prostate cancer and male sexual differentiation.Mechanisms by which AR acts and regulations of AR nucleocytoplasmic shuttling are not understood well. Materials and Methods: Degenerate PCR and RACE Cloning of AR Gene; Phylogenetic Analysis and Molecular Modeling;Real-time Fluorescent Quantitative RT-PCR; Northern Blot Hybridization;In ...
متن کاملHic-5/ARA55, a LIM domain-containing nuclear receptor coactivator expressed in prostate stromal cells.
Prostate gland development and growth requires both androgen action and epithelial-stromal communications. In fact, androgen signaling through the androgen receptor (AR) may be important in both stromal and epithelial cells of the prostate. Because interaction of AR with the coactivator, Hic-5/ARA55, results in enhanced androgen-induced transcription, we analyzed Hic-5/ARA55 expression in prost...
متن کاملMicroenvironment of Prostate Cancer Receptor-Coregulator Recruitment Is Altered in the Tissue Stromal-Epithelial Cell Interactions and Androgen
Tissue recombination experiments show that prostate mesenchyma directs prostate epithelial cell growth and development in an androgen-dependent manner, and that functional differentiation of prostate epithelium requires androgendriven processes in both epithelia and stroma. The androgen induction of target genes in primary cultures of prostate stromal and epithelial cells was determined using a...
