Association of Androgen-Receptor Gene Mutations with the Copy Number of Androgen-Receptor Silk Protein A Complex and Glutathione-S-Transferases T1 and M1 in Prostate Cancer Patients

Objective. The purpose of our work was to explore the association of mutations in the androgen receptor gene and copy numbers of the androgen-receptor silk protein A complex with glutathione-S-transferases T1 and M1 in prostate cancer patients. Materials and Methods. Eighty-five patients with PC and...

description Objective. The purpose of our work was to explore the association of mutations in the androgen receptor gene and copy numbers of the androgen-receptor silk protein A complex with glutathione-S-transferases T1 and M1 in prostate cancer patients. Materials and Methods. Eighty-five patients with PC and 85 healthy controls were included in the study. Fasting peripheral venous blood was collected, whole blood genomic DNA was extracted, and AR gene-receptor genotype was detected by a high-resolution melting curve analysis detection technology. Expression levels of androgen receptor (AR) and filamin protein A (FlnA) were detected by Western blotting. RT-PCR was used to detect the copy number of T1 and M1 glutathione-S-transferases. Results. The wild-type androgen receptor gene rs5918762 is of TT type. The frequencies of CC and TC genes in the prostate cancer group were significantly higher than those in the normal control group P<0.05. Compared with TT-type PC patients, PC patients with TC-type and CC-type had higher expression levels of sex hormone receptor silk protein A complex and higher copy numbers of GSTT1 and GSTM1 P<0.05. Androgen-receptor gene mutation (T ⟶ C) was significantly positively correlated with the expression level of androgen-receptor silk protein A complex and the copy number of GSTT1 and GSTM1. Conclusion. Androgen-receptor gene polymorphisms were significantly associated with expression levels of androgen receptor complex A and silk proteins, and copy numbers of T1 and M1 glutathione-S-transferases. A combination of four factors can be used to identify prostate cancer susceptibility and disease progression.
