Conjugate inhibits androgen receptor transactivation and translocation in prostate cancer cells.

Abstract

<p>Effect of conjugate on the transactivation of androgen receptor in presence/absence of 10 nM DHT in (A) androgen receptor positive LNCaP cells and (B) androgen receptor negative PC-3 cells. Luciferase activities are expressed as percentage of transactivation with respect to only 10 nM DHT treated group which is considered as 100%. *indicates statistically significant difference (<i>p</i><0.05) with respect to DHT treated groups. (C) Effect of conjugate on the dynamics of nuclear translocation of androgen receptor as determined by green fluorescent protein (GFP)-androgen receptor construct in presence/absence of 10 nM DHT for 2 h.</p
