GSE104872: mRNA-seq in MCF7 cells in response to 4-hydroxytamoxifen (OHT)

• Organsim human
• Type RNASEQ
• Target gene
• Project ARCHS4

Purpose: Study the temporal effect of OHT on gene expression in MCF7 cells using mRNA-seq.; Methods: MCF7 cells were treated with 100nM OHT for 2h, 6h and 24h or 24h with vehicle alone (ethanol). Six biological replicates of each time point were included in the analysis. For the library preparation the Illumina TruSeq Stranded mRNA Library Prep Kit High Throughput was used and 2 lanes of SE50 were run on HiSeq 4000.; Results: We identify 27,520 genes of which 1,187 were significantly regulated in response to OHT in at least one time point. This included transcriptional repression of cell cycle genes as well as a number of known ER target genes.; Conclusions: We demonstrate a transcriptional response to OHT in MCF7 cells, with ERa target genes and genes linked to cell cycle progression being repressed.
