Figure 2. mRNA levels of HRR genes augments in the presence of E2 in ER-positive cells. MCF7 (A) or MCF10A (B) cells were deprived of E2 for 72 h. Next, E2 was added to the media for the indicated time points. mRNA was extracted, and quantitative real-time PCR was performed. mRNA levels of HRR genes were normalized to GAPDH and compared to the control. Notice changes in y-axis scale between (A) and (B). Data of four experiments, for each cell line, are shown. *A significant change compared to control; P-value < 0.05. HRR: Homologous recombination repair.
