Overexpression of c-Jun induced by quercetin and resverol inhibits the expression and function of the androgen receptor in human prostate cancer cells.

Abstract:

:Previously, we reported that quercetin and resveratrol inhibit the function of androgen receptor (AR). Further studies showed that these two polyphenols caused an increase in expression of c-Jun as well as its phosphorylated form in a dose-dependent manner in prostatic cell lines. Gel shift assay showed that induced c-Jun has specific DNA binding activity. Transient transfections demonstrated that c-Jun repressed prostate-specific antigen promoter activity and transcriptional activity of the AR promoter. These results support a mechanism in which overexpressed c-Jun mediates inhibitory effect on the function of AR. These polyphenols might potentially be useful in prostate cancer prevention.

  • TSC1/TSC2 inactivation inhibits AKT through mTORC1-dependent up-regulation of STAT3-PTEN cascade.

    abstract::Aberrant activation of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), caused by loss or inactivation of TSC1/TSC2 protein complex, leads to negative feedback inhibition of Akt. The exact mechanisms of this process are still not fully understood. Here we present evidence for the involvement of STAT3, a known mTORC1 ...
