| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Androgen receptor (AR) is diffusely distributed in cytoplasm of steroid-free cultured cells without the stigmoid body (STB) and sequestered by the STB formed after HAP1 transfection. Administration of DHT can promote further translocation of AR from the STBs to nucleus. In the brain, AR is frequently expressed in the nucleus of neuron with STB, but not localized to the STB. PCM1 is distributed surrounding the centrosome in cultured cells without the STB, while in HAP1-transfected cultured cells, PCM is translocated to the HAP1-induced STBs. Huntingtin (Htt) is also distributed near the centrosome like PCM1 in cultured cells without STB, whereas Htt is diffusely distributed in cytoplasm. In addition, comparing HAP1-trasfected cultured cells and control, the current study suggests that intracellular induction of STB/HAP1 appears to increase S-phase in cell cycle and that it also specifically suppress apoptosis induced by proteasome inhibition.
