Amyloid Precursor Protein Is a Primary Androgen Target Gene That Promotes Prostate Cancer Growth

Abstract excerpt

Androgen receptor (AR) is a critical transcription factor that regulates various target genes and contributes to the pathophysiology of prostate cancer hormone dependently. Here, we identify amyloid precursor protein (APP) as a primary androgen target through chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) combined with genome tiling array analysis (ChIP-chip). ChIP-treated DNA were obtained from prostate cancer LNCaP cells...
