Estradiol-regulated microRNAs control estradiol response in breast cancer cells
Estradiol (E2) regulates gene expression at the transcriptional level by functioning as a ligand for estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha) and estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta). E2-inducible proteins c-Myc and E2Fs are required for optimal ERalpha activity and secondary estrogen responses, respectively. We show that E2 induces 21 microRNAs and represses seven microRNAs in MCF-7 breast cancer cells; t...
متن کاملInjectable Estradiol Valerate, as a Substitute for Estradiol Pellets in Breast Cancer Animal Model
The ability to maintain and study human tissues in in-vivo environment has proved to be a valuable tool in breast cancer research for several decades. The most widely tissues have been xenografts established human breast cancer cell lines into athymic nude mice. The aim of this study was to provide a new accurate and affordable method for the establishment of breast cancer xenograftin nude mice...
متن کاملEffect of estradiol on human breast cancer cells in culture.
Conditions are described for growing and maintaining the estradiol sensitivity of the human breast cancer cell line ZR-75-1 both in monolayer and suspension cultures. Either newborn calf or fetal calf serum can be used in the culture medium, but an effect of estradiol on growth of the cells was only observed reproducibly if the serum was first treated with dextran-charcoal. Sulfatase treatment ...
متن کاملSerum Liver proteins and 17β-estradiol in Postmenopausal Women with Breast Cancer
Background: Breast cancer is a hormone-dependent malignancy that is associated with estrogen and progesterone interactions. The liver is the most important organ to be affected by the metastasis of breast cancer, which causes functional impairment. We compared levels of obesity, 17β-estradiol, and secreted proteins in postmenopausal women with breast cancer but without hepatic symptoms to those...
متن کاملProfiling of Estrogen-regulated MicroRNAs in Breast Cancer Cells
Estrogen plays vital roles in mammary gland development and breast cancer progression. It mediates its function by binding to and activating the estrogen receptors (ERs), ERα, and ERβ. ERα is frequently upregulated in breast cancer and drives the proliferation of breast cancer cells. The ERs function as transcription factors and regulate gene expression. Whereas ERα's regulation of protein-codi...
