Project description:Transcription profiling by array of human MCF7 breast cancer cells after growth with cyclohexamide followed by treatment with 17beta-estradiol
Project description:This experiment is designed to assess the role of RIP140 in estrogen receptor-dependent gene expression in MCF7 luminal breast cancer cells. MCF7 cells were transfected with an siRNA to target RIP140 or siControl, and subsequently depleted from hormones for three days. Thereafter, cells were treated for 6 hours with 10nM Estradiol and RNA was isolated and further processed for expression analyses.
