Androgens repress expression of many genes, yet
the mechanism of this activity has remained elusive. The cytokine,
interleukin-6, is active in a variety of biological systems, and its
expression is repressed by androgens. Accordingly we dissected the
mechanism of androgen's ability to inhibit interleukin-6 expression at
the molecular level. In a series of co-transfection assays, we found
that 5

B Activity through Maintenance of I
B
Levels Contributes to Dihydrotestosterone-mediated Repression of the
Interleukin-6 Promoter
-dihydrotestosterone, through the androgen receptor, repressed
activation of the interleukin-6 promoter, in part, by inhibiting NF
B
activity. It did not appear that 5
-dihydrotestosterone inhibited
NF
B by activating the androgen receptor to compete for the NF
B
response element as we could not detect androgen receptor binding to
the IL-6 promoter by DNase I footprinting assay. However, by
electrophoretic mobility shift assay we found that
5
-dihydrotestosterone repressed formation of NF
B·NF
B
response element complex formation. In LNCaP prostate carcinoma
cells, 5
-dihydrotestosterone achieved this effect through
maintenance of I
B
protein levels in the face of phorbol ester, a
stimulus that results in I
B
degradation. Finally, we confirmed
that I
B
inhibits NF
B-mediated activation of the interleukin-6
promoter. These data suggest that maintenance of I
B
levels may
represent the first identified mechanism for androgen-mediated
repression of a natural androgen-regulated gene.
