Estrogen receptor-α mediates gene expression changes and growth response in ovarian cancer cells exposed to estrogen
1 Dec 2005
Abstract excerpt
Estrogens play a significant role in the development, growth, invasion and metastasis of ovarian tumors. The transcriptional program regulated by 17beta-estradiol (E(2)) in human ovarian cancer cell lines was analyzed using cDNA microarrays containing 1200 cancer-related genes. Twenty-eight transcripts had at least a threefold change in expression in E(2)-treated PEO1 ovarian carcinoma cells compared with...
