Analysis of the polymorphic CAG repeat length in the androgen receptor gene in patients with testicular germ cell cancer
12 Sept 2002
Abstract excerpt
Changes in the length of a polymorphic trinucleotide (CAG) repeat in the androgen receptor (AR) gene, which may lead to altered transactivation of the AR gene, have been implicated to play a role in the pathogenesis of several forms of endocrine cancer and certain reproductive disorders. Subjects with reproductive disorders that are associated with a relative deficiency of androgen function carry an increased...
