Role of 17β-Estradiol on Cell Proliferation and Mitochondrial Fitness in Glioblastoma Cells

Figure 4

Effect of E2 on mitochondrial dynamics. E2 treatment increases OPA1, MNF2, and MNF1 gene expression following 1 hour of treatment (Figures 4(a)–4(c)). Consistently, E2 treatment increases FIS1 gene expression following 3 hours of treatment (Figure 4(d)). The calculated value of 2^‐ΔΔC^t in untreated controls is 1. Data are expressed as mean ± SD of at least four independent experiments. ; ; and .
