Abstract
The purpose of this study was to further characterize cell growth-inhibitory effects of a recently identified androgen receptor (AR) signaling inhibitor 6-amino-2-[2-(4-tert-butyl-pnenoxy)-ethylsulfanyl]-1H-pyrimidin-4-one (DL3)5 and antiandrogen bicalutamide (Bic). DL3 was more potent than Bic in induction of G1 arrest and reduction of G1-related cell cycle protein expression in AR-positive LNCaP cells. DL3, but not Bic, moderately inhibited growth of AR-negative PC-3 cells independent of G1 arrest. The data indicated that DL3 inhibit cell growth in both AR-dependent and -independent manners and is potentially a potent therapeutic agent for the management of advanced human prostate cancer.
