Differentially expressed genes after treatment with adriamycin in DMBA-induced rat breast tumors

The aim of this study was to compare the gene expression profile changes of DMBA-induced rat breast tumors after treatment with adriamycin. To this end, a cDNA microarray was performed (Affymetrix’s Rat Genome 230 2.0 array). This gene expression study was carried out on the tumor biopsy samples prior to adriamycin treatment, and compared with matched tumor biopsy samples after completion of the adriamycin treatment schedule.
