  1. *Number of time points that met the 1.2-fold change in the same direction selection criteria. Genes in bold have previously been shown to be direct targets in other ER+ breast tumor cell lines (ZR75-1 and/or MCF-7). CHX treatments alone had agonistic effects on these genes; therefore their CHX sensitivity in the presence of E2 is unclear.
