The MTT assay results showed that the MDA-MB- 231 cells (IC50=14.521 μM) were more sensitive than the MCF-7 cells (IC50=16.3315 μM) to DOX. The immunofluorescence results indicated that the expression of HSP90α in both cell lines decreased after exposure to DOX. The western blot and immunofluorescence analyses showed that HSP90β expression decreased in the MCF-7 cells but increased in the MDA-MB- 231 cells after DOX treatment. Conclusion: The obtained results suggested that HSP90α and HSP90β expression levels were reduced in the MCF-7 cells after exposure to DOX. In the MDA-MB-231 cells, HSP90α expression was reduced while HSP90β was found to be overexpressed following DOX treatment.
