Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Some mutations of androgen receptor (AR) confer resistance to antiandrogen to prostate cancer (PC) cells. Previously we reported that LNCaP-cxD2 cells established from androgen-dependent LNCaP-FGC PC cells as an antiandrogen bicalutamide-resistant subline harbor W741C/L mutation in the AR gene. In this report, we examined one possible mechanism of the resistance. METHODS: Change in the gene expression...
