Matriptase Activation and Shedding with HAI-1 Induced by Steroid Sex Hormones in Human Prostate Cancer Cells, but Not in Breast Cancer Cells

research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells

56 citations , February 2006 in “American journal of physiology. Cell physiology”

This study observed that in hormone-starved prostate cancer cells, the androgen 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone rapidly induces matriptase activation and shedding, which involves androgen receptor signaling and requires both transcription and protein synthesis.
