Research Abstract |
The expression status of the dioxin receptor (AhR) in the cell line including the human prostate cancer was confirmed by Western blot analysis. LNCaP , which is known as prostate cancer cell line, proliferation is controlled for 3- Methylcholanthrene (3MC) and others as a typical AhR ligand, and the proliferation potency and the transcriptional ability of these ligands wereconfirmed, and androgen receptor (AR) appearance has decreased. The concentration dependency was admitted. On the other hand, the transcriptional ability of AR rose oppositely. This phenomenon was seen also in the presence or absence of androgen, and was concerned to ubiquitine- protesome system. However, it was confirmed to control both proliferation potencies and the transcriptional abilities in other ligands (ligand X). As a result, it was thought that the therapeutic gain to the hormone refractory prostate cancer was expected.
