Thus, the potential translational inhibitory effects of the TAR RNA region, mediated by activation of p68 kinase, may be down-regulated by Tat during activation of the latent virus [ 22 ] . Along these lines, a Tat peptide antagonist, which bound specifically to TAR RNA and competed with Tat for binding, reduced Tat-dependent translation [ 42 ] .

For example, in the related Rip1-Tag5 model, the vascular addressins GlyCAM-1 and MAdCAM-1 are expressed in pre-malignant islets, but down-regulated in solid tumors; their downregulation coincides with lack of infiltration in this model of spontaneous anti-tumor immunity [ 19 ] . It is possible that sub-lethal radiation is altering the expression of endothelial adhesion molecules allowing binding and extravasation of activated tumor-specific lymphocytes.
Retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and retinoid X receptors (RXRs) are nuclear transcription factors that mediate the action of retinoids [ 11 12 ] . We have demonstrated that in the rat, castration resulted in an increase in mRNAs for RAR α and γ in the prostate; such effects were prevented by T replacement [ 13 ] . We also demonstrated that the levels of mRNAs for RAR α and γ in non-tumorigenic rat epithelial cells (NRP152) were down-regulated, whereas those in tumorigenic cells (NRP154) were unaffected or up-regulated following T treatment [ 14 ] . In addition, RAR α was over-expressed in tumorigenic NRP154 cells.
