Transcriptomic data of MCF-7 breast cancer cells treated with 10 µM enterolactone.

ABSTRACT: Enterolactone (EL) is a mammalian enterolignan produced in the intestine as a result of the microbial biotransformation of the dietary lignans. EL is a potential nutraceutical, with several health benefits, including anticancer and antimetastatic properties. Epidemiological data suggest a possible link between EL exposure and breast cancer risk. However, EL binds to estrogen receptor-α, produces estrogen-like effects on gene expression, and induces proliferation of MCF-7 breast cancer cells at a concentration of 10 µM. Here, we present RNA-seq data obtained from MCF-7 breast cancer cells treated with 10 µM EL for a period of 72 h, which captures the transcriptomic alterations associated with cell proliferation. The data are available from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO, accession number GSE2
