Breast cancer has been among the most prominent cancers with high incidence rates and mortality. Currently most of the offered therapeutics for treatment are toxic; hence, less toxic therapeutic intervention is required. Here, we studied the molecular mechanisms of the effect of a phytoestrogen Emodin on estrogen receptor positive MCF- 7 and negative MDA-MB-231 cells by carrying out a comprehensive network assessment. Differentially expressed microRNAs along with their identified differentially expressed mRNAs were analyzed through microarrays by using integrative systems biology approach. For each cell line miRNA-target gene networks were built, gene ontology and pathway enrichment analyses were performed, enrichment maps were constructed and the potential key genes, microRNAs and microRNA-gene interactions were studied.
