Research Abstract |
Previous studies have demonstrated that androgens exert anti-proliferative effects in the breast carcinoma, but the detailed mechanisms remain unclear. Results of our present study demonstrated that (1) androgen actions were markedly suppressed by estrogens in the breast carcinoma, (2) an estrogen-producing enzyme, aromatase, also plays as a negative regulator of intratumoral androgen production, (3) androgen actions were increased in the breast carcinoma treated with an aromatase inhibitor, and (4) 17βHSD2 was identified as an androgen-induced gene in the breast carcinoma, which was involved in the anti-proliferative effects of androgens on the breast carcinoma.
