MCF7 breast cancer cell response to estradiol
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The experiment was designed to uncover the response to estradiol (E2) in MCF7 breast cancer cells. The first step was to create a reference sample in a ligand free environment. For that, the cells were placed into estradiol free media for 3 days, which reduced the binding between ER-alpha and E2. The cells were then ready to be re-exposed to E2. Following the introduction of E2, the resultant changes were tracked by multiple ChIP-seq experiments. The experiments were performed at 0, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160, 320, 640 and 1280 minutes after the stimulation. Each ChIP-seq experiment was carried out with a different antibody to measure genome-wide changes in genomic occupancy of their specific protein targets. Specifically, the studied protein factors and histone modifications were: ER-alpha, H3K4me3, and H2AZ. Other previously published data from the same set of experiments are available for Pol-II ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq (GEO accession GSE62789 and GSE44800).
