Figure Lengend Snippet: Inhibition of estrogen synthesis by the aromatase inhibitor letrozole stimulates the growth of U2932 tumors and affects the expression of NR4A and MUC5B . ( A ), Male NSG mice were injected subcutaneously with U2932 cells and treated subcutaneously daily with vehicle or the aromatase inhibitor letrozole (10 μg/mouse). The vehicle group consisted of 7 mice, letrozole group consisted of 8 mice. Tumor size was measured daily. ( B ), RT-qPCR analysis of NR4A1 , NR4A2 , NR4A3 and MUC5B . Results are presented as relative expressions (mean ± SD). An unpaired two-tailed t-test was used for statistical analysis between the two groups (* p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01).
Article Snippet: The human ABC DLBCL cell line U2932 used in this study was obtained from DSMZ (Leibniz Institute, Braunschweig, Germany) and cultured as previously described [ ].
