Abstract

We have examine the effect of all trans retinoic acid and 9-cis-retinoic acid on human breast cancer cell proliferation using SRB assay and cell cycle analysis. 1)In MCF-7 cells, in the presence of phenol red, either all trans retinoic acid or 9-cis-retinoic acid treatment showed the inhibition of the cell proliferation over control cells and also inhibit the estrogen stimulated cell proliferation when it was given together with estrogen.(omitted)
