Androgen receptor (AR) is a type of nuclear receptor that is activated by binding of either of the androgenic hormones testosterone or dihydrotestosterone in the cytoplasm and then translocating into the nucleus. Upon binding the hormone ligand, the receptor dissociates from accessory proteins, translocates into the nucleus, dimerizes, and then stimulates transcription of androgen responsive genes. The androgen receptor is most closely related to the progesterone receptor, and progestins in higher dosages can block the androgen receptor. The main function of the androgen receptor is as a DNA-binding transcription factor that regulates gene expression. Androgen regulated genes are critical for the development and maintenance of the male sexual phenotype. Mutations in this gene are also associated with complete androgen insensitivity (CAIS).

  • HY-176067
    LO-4-25
    		Degrader
    LO-4-25 is a covalent degrader targeting the androgen receptor (AR) and its truncated variant AR-V7. LO-4-25 covalently binds to the E3 ubiquitin ligase CUL4 DCAF16, promoting the ubiquitination of AR and AR-V7, which subsequently are recognized and degraded by the proteasome, reducing the protein levels of AR and AR-V7 in cells. LO-4-25 is promising for research of androgen-independent prostate cancers.
