Involvement of transcription factor Sp1 in quercetin-mediated inhibitory effect on the androgen receptor in human prostate cancer cells
6 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
The transactivation function of the human androgen receptor (AR) can be regulated by several coregulators that may be either positive or negative. Ubiquitous transcription factor Sp1 not only regulates the basal expression of the AR but also acts as its coregulator. Our previous study has shown that quercetin, one of the main polyphenols, can effectively inhibit the expression and function of the AR. The present...
