Özet

Breast cancer has been among the most prominent cancers with high mortality. Currently most of the offered therapeutics are toxic; hence, less toxic therapeutic intervention is required. Here, we studied the molecular mechanisms of the effect of a phytoestrogen Emodin on estrogen receptor positive MCF-7 and negative MDA-MB-231 cells by carrying out a comprehensive network assessment. Differentially expressed microRNAs along with their previously identified differentially expressed mRNAs were analyzed through microarrays by using integrative systems biology approach. For each cell line miRNA-target gene networks were built, gene ontology and pathway enrichment analyses were performed, enrichment maps were constructed and the potential key genes, miRNAs and miRNA-gene interactions were studied.
