The human androgen receptor (AR) gene possesses 2 trinucleotide repeats of CAG and GGN in exon 1. The CAG repeat corresponds to a polyglutamine tract in the N-terminal region of the receptor, that affects its transcriptional efficiency. The GGN repeat codifies for a polyglycine tract, and affects th

Uterine endometrial carcinoma is common among women. Several reports indicated that this cancer is influenced by androgens mediated through their receptors. The human androgen receptor gene contains a polymorphic CAG repeat in the coding region of exon 1. Other studies suggested a possible associati
