Transcriptional regulation of the human prostatic acid phosphatase gene:tissue-specific and androgen-dependent regulation of the promoter constructs in cell lines and transgenic mice

Abstract Human prostatic acid phosphatase (hPAP) was the first laboratory parameter used for prostate cancer diagnosis, whereas the mechanisms behind the androgen regulation and tissue-specific expression of this prostate epithelium-specific differentiation antigen are not yet clear. In this study...
