Description
Summary:(Ah) nonresponsive cells (BaP MCF-7 and T47D5 cells) were
(E2) induced IGFBP-4 protein secretion and MRNA expression
affected 24 hours after treatment. Aryl-hydrocarbon receptor
and these effects were decreased after co-treatment with 10
and wild-type cells, with the exception of IGFBP-5. IGFBP-4
caused a decrease in constitutive secretion of IGFBP-4,
cells were not significantly different. These data support
cells. In contrast, when detected by immunoblot analysis
detected IGFBP-4 at 80 and 14-fold lower levels in the BaP
expression. In human breast cancer cells, 17 O-estradiol
factor binding protein-4 (IGFBP-4) protein secretion and MRNA
however, the constitutive IGFBP-4 MRNA levels were not
IGFBPs were secreted at similar levels in Ali nonresponsive

MRNA levels expressed in T47D, T47D5, MCF-7 and BaP MCF-7
