RNA extracted from the biopsies has been subjected to Affymetrix microarray analysis and the data from paired biopsies interrogated to discover genes whose expression is most influenced by oestrogen deprivation. Experiment Overall Design: biopsies were taken from the same subjects both pretreatment and after 10-14 days Letrozol, 2.5 mg/day, oralhttp://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-5462humanhttp://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-5462/samples/
