The antiproliferative effect of tamoxifen in breast cancer cells: mediation by the estrogen receptor.

Abstract:

:The effects of tamoxifen (Tam) and its 4-hydroxylated metabolite (OH-Tam) on the growth of two human breast cancer cell lines ( MCF7 and BT20 ) were evaluated by fluorometric DNA assay. The effects of the antiestrogens were dependent upon their concentrations and the nature of the cells. At concentrations below 4 microM, the degree of inhibition was related to their relative affinities for the estrogen receptor and was totally reversed by estradiol in MCF7 cells. No inhibition was observed in the estrogen receptor negative cell line BT20 . This supports and extends the idea that the antiproliferative effect of Tam at these concentrations is mediated by the estrogen receptor even in the absence of measurable estradiol concentration. At concentrations greater than 4 microM, Tam was cytotoxic on MCF7 and BT20 mammary cell lines within 2 days of treatment. The cytotoxic effect was irreversible and was not prevented by occupation of the estrogen receptor with estradiol, suggesting that it was not mediated by the estrogen receptor. The cytotoxicity of the triphenylethylene drugs, however, has some specificity since it was not observed in a fibroblast rat cell line ( 49F ) or in the two mammary cell lines with similar high concentrations of estradiol and diethylstilbestrol.
