Abstract:Clinical studies have shown the improved benefit of combining androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with radiotherapy, indicating a potential interaction between the androgen signalling and DNA damage response (DDR) pathways in PCa. We have explored the underlying basis of this interaction by interrogating the mechanism of androgen regulation of the DDR in men with PCa, both untreated and treated with an androgen inhibitor. We show that androgen receptor (AR) signalling regulates the DDR and promotes DDR foci for… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
