Effects on the expression of estrogenic activities. Transcription of ERα and ERβ activated by the mixture of BDD in Hela cells. Hela cells were transiently cotransfected with pERE-luc, pRL-TK, and ERα or ERβ by lipofection. The cells received no treatment, treatment with 10 nM E2, or treatment with varying mass concentrations of each of the mixture alone. Estrogen-stimulated luciferase activity of ERs was measured and the data was presented as the fold-increase over control + standard deviation, and fold-increase representative of three experiments done in triplicate. ** P < 0.01 vs. control; P < 0.01 vs.E2
