...propagation of these malignant cells. Current drug-based treatment works by blocking ERs, thus slowing or stopping tumor growth. The study identified sections of DNA known as control regions, portions of genes pertaining to cell growth and division that bind to the ER. These control regions remotely activate or inhibit the function of the gene. The researchers created a map of all of these regions—several thousand in total. Since genes have multiple control regions, the map indicates that approximately one thousand genes are influenced by the binding of estrogen to the ER, according to a statement released...
