Research Abstract |
We established a novel xenograft mouse model mimicking a human prostate cancer. Immunohistochemistry showed AR and PSA protein expression in epithelial cells. Sequencing analysis revealed the AR with a point mutation at amino acid 874 (H874Y). Promoter assay revealed agonistic effect of estradiol against the AR with apoint mutation H874Y.
