Microarray Analysis Reveals Glucocorticoid-Regulated Survival Genes That Are Associated With Inhibition of Apoptosis in Breast Epithelial Cells
1 Mar 2004
Abstract excerpt
Activation of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) results in diverse physiological effects depending on cell type. For example, glucocorticoids (GC) cause apoptosis in lymphocytes but can rescue mammary epithelial cells from growth factor withdrawal-induced death. However, the molecular mechanisms of GR-mediated survival remain poorly understood. In this study, a large-scale oligonucleotide screen of GR-regulated...
