| Abstract | The aim of this study was to explore the effect of bisphenol A (BPA) on the EGFR-STAT3 pathway in breast cancer. We applied 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) cytotoxicity assay to the analysis of the responsiveness of MCF-7 cells to BPA. Gene expression was assayed at the transcriptional and translational levels by reverse transcription-PCR and Western blotting. We explored the effects of BPA on MCF-7 cell proliferation through inhibition of the related genes, STAT3, using RNA interference, and EGFR, using its inhibitor AG1478. The optimal concentration and time point of BPA-induced proliferation in MCF-7 cells are 1 µM and 24 h, respectively. BPA significantly increased the expression of STAT3 at a concentration of 1 µM following treatment for 48 h and the expression of STAT3 was down-regulated after blocking EGFR. When STAT3 was blocked in MCF-7 cells, BPA did not appear to induce cell proliferation. Treatment with BPA (1 µM) in the presence of AG1478 for 48 h resulted in the stimulation of cell growth in MCF-7 cells, similar to that of the BPA alone treatment. BPA increases STAT3 expression, which is a major factor in the pathway of BPA-induced proliferation, and STAT3 activation contributes to BPA-induced breast cancer cell proliferation. However, EGFR mediates negative signaling for BPA-induced breast cancer cell proliferation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
