- W2093720152 abstract "Androgens exert profound effects on the organization and function of the central nervous system. These effects are mediated by the androgen receptor (AR), a ligand-dependent transcription factor. The mechanisms of AR regulation in neural tissue, however, remain to be fully elucidated. Characterizing this process can provide important information regarding receptor function and AR gene regulation in the brain. Previously, it was shown that testosterone (T) up-regulated neural AR in a dose-dependent manner in both male and female mice. In the present study, whether AR was differentially regulated by the natural agonists T and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) or the nonsteroidal antagonist flutamide (FLU) was assessed. Males were gonadectomized and AR levels were allowed to decline to baseline 3 days after surgery. Changes in AR protein content produced by the various treatments were measured by semiquantitative Western blot of limbic system extracts. Treatment with T or DHT significantly augmented AR 3 and 7 h after hormone administration, but only DHT sustained this increase for 21 h. This difference also was observed when males were given T plus finasteride (FIN, a 5alpha reductase inhibitor). The findings demonstrate that the two endogenous ligands have differential time course effects on neural AR. The antiandrogen FLU failed to up-regulate AR at doses up to 100 times higher than T or DHT. When administered concomitantly with T or DHT, it effectively inhibited the augmentation of AR normally seen 3 h after androgen treatment. While immunohistochemical studies showed that FLU was able to promote nuclear translocation of AR, Western analysis revealed that FLU, in contrast to T and DHT, failed to maintain the integrity of AR. The results demonstrate that (a) the endogenous androgens T and DHT regulate AR differently, suggesting a potential cellular mechanism that may contribute to the difference in neural target gene sensitivity to these androgens; (b) up-regulation of AR occurs only in the presence of agonists; (c) the mechanism of action of FLU in the brain involves inhibition of AR protein up-regulation normally seen in response to androgen; and (d) FLU promotes AR nuclear translocation but not augmentation of cellular AR populations. These findings demonstrate that in vivo AR regulation in the brain basically parallels mechanisms proposed from results obtained with transfected cells and cell lines." @default.
