Transcriptomal profiling of C57BL/6 wild type and ER-alpha KO mice fetal mammary gland after fetal exposure to Bisphenol A (BPA) and 17alpha-ethynylestradiol (EE2)

To examine whether the BPA-induced morphological alterations of the fetal mouse mammary glands are a) associated with changes in mRNA expression reflecting estrogenic actions and/or b) dependent on the estrogen receptor (ER), we compared the transcriptomal effects of BPA and the steroidal estrogen ethinylestradiol (EE2) on fetal mammary tissues of wild type and ER knock-out mice.
