Function

Steroid hormone receptors are ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate eukaryotic gene expression and affect cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues (PubMed:19022849). Transcription factor activity is modulated by bound coactivator and corepressor proteins like ZBTB7A that recruits NCOR1 and NCOR2 to the androgen response elements/ARE on target genes, negatively regulating androgen receptor signaling and androgen-induced cell proliferation (PubMed:20812024). Transcription activation is also down-regulated by NR0B2. Activated, but not phosphorylated, by HIPK3 and ZIPK/DAPK3.Isoform 3Lacks the C-terminal ligand-binding domain and may therefore constitutively activate the transcription of a specific set of genes independently of steroid hormones.Isoform 4Lacks the C-terminal ligand-binding domain and may therefore constitutively activate the transcription of a specific set of genes independently of steroid hormones.

Activity summary

The Androgen Receptor (AR-V7 specific) is a variant of the androgen receptor a type of nuclear receptor critical for mediating the effects of androgens like testosterone. AR-V7 is a protein that lacks the ligand-binding domain present in full-length androgen receptors resulting in its activity being independent of androgen presence. It is prominently expressed in prostate tissues and is often observed in prostate cancer cells resistant to conventional therapies. The protein variant exhibits a molecular mass of about 75 kDa. Commonly recognized aliases for AR-V7 include AR-V7 ARv7 and AR V7.

Biological function summary

The AR-V7 is significant in cellular proliferation and survival processes without needing direct androgen binding due to its interaction capability with specific nuclear elements. It resides in the cell nucleus and engages with DNA as part of a transcriptional regulatory complex. Its ability to modulate the transcription of target genes makes it a prominent player in the regulation of cell cycle and apoptosis. In many instances AR-V7 forms complexes with other transcriptional modulators and nuclear proteins that augment its transcriptional activity.

Pathways

AR-V7 plays an important role in the androgen signaling pathway which is pivotal in the progression and development of prostate cancer. It interacts with various co-regulators and influences the expression of genes involved in cell growth and differentiation. The splice variant also participates in other related signaling pathways such as the PI3K/AKT pathway indirectly interfacing with proteins like AR peptides and AR protein which further highlights its relevance in intracellular signaling mechanisms.

Associated diseases and disorders

AR-V7 has a well-established connection with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) a form of prostate cancer that progresses despite androgen deprivation therapy. The presence of AR-V7 signifies a poor prognosis and resistance to anti-androgen therapies. Its transcriptional activity is linked to proteins such as AR protein and anti-androgen agents that typically target the full-length androgen receptor. Understanding the role of AR-V7 in reinforcing cancer cell survival and therapy resistance has fueled research towards developing targeted therapeutics and diagnostics like AR-V7 ELISA kits and AR IHC assays.
