Product Description
Androgen Receptors is the most comprehensive and up to date volume on the topic, including discussions of the basic mechanisms of androgen-androgen receptor actions, their roles in the androgen-related diseases, and their potential clinical applications. Key topics covered include: + The discovery and cloning of the androgen receptor; + Androgen receptor coregulators; + Androgen related genes and their consensus DNA response elements; + Basic mechanism of action including functional analyses, cellular localization and phosphorylation studies; + Cross-talk to other signal transduction systems; + The recent connections of androgens to women's diseases, such as osteoporosis and ovarian cancer. This book is of interest to students, basic scientists, and clinicians as both a study guide and reference of research in the androgen field. It could also be used as an advanced level text in endocrinology, urology, OBGYN, or oncology.
