Crystal Structure of the Rat Androgen Receptor Ligand Binding Domian Complex with an N-Aryl-Hydroxybicyclohydantoin
Structural highlights
DiseaseANDR_RAT Note=Defects in Ar are a cause of androgen insensitivity. Rats with this syndrome are called testicular feminized (TFM).[1] FunctionANDR_RAT Steroid hormone receptors are ligand-activated transcription factors that regulate eukaryotic gene expression and affect cellular proliferation and differentiation in target tissues. Transcription factor activity is modulated by bound coactivator and corepressor proteins. Transcription activation is down-regulated by NR0B2. Activated, but not phosphorylated, by HIPK3 and ZIPK/DAPK3 (By similarity).[2] [3] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedA novel, N-aryl-bicyclohydantoin selective androgen receptor modulator scaffold was discovered through structure-guided modifications of androgen receptor antagonists. A prototype compound (7R,7aS)-10b from this series is a potent and highly tissue-selective agonist of the androgen receptor. After oral dosing in a rat atrophied levator ani muscle model, (7R,7aS)-10b demonstrated efficacy at restoring levator ani muscle mass to that of intact controls and exhibited >50-fold selectivity for muscle over prostate.
