BACKGROUND: We investigated modulation of androgen receptor (AR) activity in prostatic tumor cells by luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH)-induced increase of the intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) level.
METHODS: AR transactivation activity was assessed in transiently transfected DU-145 and in LNCaP cells.
RESULTS: LHRH and cAMP derivative, respectively, induced reporter gene activity to about 15% of the maximal level in DU-145 cells transfected with an AR expression vector and an androgen-inducible reporter gene. LHRH or the cAMP analogue acted synergistically in combination with low concentrations of androgen thus lowering the androgen concentration required for maximal AR activation by a factor of 100. A similar activation of the AR by cAMP analogue was observed in LNCaP cells when enhancement of androgen-induced secretion of prostate-specific antigen was determined. The two nonsteroidal antiandrogens hydroxyflutamide and Casodex(R) inhibited reporter gene activity.
CONCLUSIONS: The AR is synergistically activated by low doses of androgen and LHRH or the second messenger cAMP. This may have implications for the treatment of advanced prostate cancer.
