Activity of ARBS in promoter and intronic regions of AURKA. A luciferase assay was performed in LNCaP-ARhi cells with different DHT concentrations (0, 10 or 100 nM). Cells were transfected with pGL3-basic-LUC (LUC), pGL3-PSA5.8-LUC (PSA), pGL3-AURKApromoter-LUC (AURKA) and pGL3-AURKAenhancer-LUC (AURKA enh.), and luciferase activities were normalized to the renilla control plasmid (LUC). (a) Activity of AR binding to the AURKA promoter and positive (PSA) as well as negative control regions with different androgen stimulation. (b) Activity of AR binding to the AURKA enhancer and promoter with enhancer region and positive (PSA) and negative control (pGL3) regions with different androgen stimulation. *P < 0.05; n.s. = not significant. The means ± s.d. are shown.
