Conditional Expression of the Androgen Receptor Induces Oncogenic Transformation of the Mouse Prostate
28 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
The androgen signaling pathway, mediated through the androgen receptor (AR), is critical in prostate tumorigenesis. However, the precise role of AR in prostate cancer development and progression still remains largely unknown. Specifically, it is unclear whether overexpression of AR is sufficient to induce prostate tumor formation in vivo. Here, we inserted the human AR transgene with a LoxP-stop-loxP (LSL)...
