AR
Overview
AR (androgen receptor) is a gene that encodes the androgen receptor protein. AR plays a role in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer (PMID: 21989426; PMID: 18507821). AR amplification and AR mutations occur in castration-resistant prostate cancer (PMID: 22245783). AR expression has also been observed in invasive breast cancers (PMID: 21552212; PMID: 18507821).
