## Abstract The cyclinβdependent kinase inhibitor protein p21^Waf1/Cip1^ is a potent tumor suppressor. Here, we demonstrate that estradiol regulates the p21^Waf1/Cip1^ gene. Estradiol induces p21^Waf1/Cip1^ mRNA expression within 30β60βmin independent of new protein synthesis in the estrogen recept
## Abstract Expression of an estrogen receptor Ξ± (ER) transgene in hormone independent breast cancer and normal breast epithelial cells arrests cell cycling when estradiol is added. Although endogenously expressed ER does not typically affect estradiolβinduced cell cycling of hormone dependent brea
Genistein has been proposed to be responsible for lowering the rate of breast cancer in Asian women but the mechanism for this chemopreventive effect in vivo is unknown. In this study, we present in vitro evidence that genistein inhibits cell proliferation similarly in ER-positive and ER-negative hu
