Androgen Receptor

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).

    SHBG 141-161 is a GPRC6A receptor agonist. SHBG 141-161 mimics the action of GPRC6A endogenous agonist uncarboxylated osteocalcin by binding to GPRC6A and promoting downstream signaling to increase testosterone and insulin secretion. SHBG 141-161 also reduces the affinity of GPRC6A to GDP protein by binding to the outer cell domain of GPRC6A thus affecting the dynamics of signal transduction. SHBG 141-161 can be used to study GPRC6A in energy metabolism and endocrine regulation.
