The Active Tamoxifen Metabolite Endoxifen (4OHNDtam) Strongly Down-Regulates Cytokeratin 6 (CK6) in MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cells
INTRODUCTION Tamoxifen is an anti-estrogen drug used in treatment of Estrogen Receptor (ER) positive breast cancer. Effects and side effects of tamoxifen is the sum of tamoxifen and all its metabolites. 4-Hydroxytamoxifen (4OHtam) and 4-hydroxy-N-demethyltamoxifen (4OHNDtam, endoxifen) both have ER affinity exceeding that of the parent drug tamoxifen. 4OHNDtam is considered the main active meta...
متن کاملEndoxifen, a secondary metabolite of tamoxifen, and 4-OH-tamoxifen induce similar changes in global gene expression patterns in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.
We recently demonstrated that endoxifen (4-hydroxy-N-desmethyl-tamoxifen), a pharmacogenetically regulated metabolite of tamoxifen, is equipotent to 4-hydroxy-tamoxifen (4-OH-Tam) with respect to estrogen receptor binding and inhibition of 17beta-estradiol (E2)-induced cell proliferation. Endoxifen was also found to be more abundant in human plasma than 4-OH-Tam, and its formation has been show...
متن کاملBerberine suppresses migration of MCF-7 breast cancer cells through down-regulation of chemokine receptors
Objective(s): Berberine is one of the main alkaloids and it has been proven to have different pharmacological effects including inhibition of cell cycle and progression of apoptosis in various cancerous cells; however, its effects on cancer metastasis are not well known. Cancer cells obtain the ability to change their chemokine system and convert into metastatic cells. In this study, we examine...
متن کاملP-195: Thymoquinone Increases Efficacy of Tamoxifen Induced Apoptosis in Human Breast Cancer MCF-7 Cells: In Vitro
Background: The objective of this study is to evaluate combined effect of Thymoquinone (The main active component of black seeds) with Tamoxifen drug on apoptosis of human breast cancer MCF-7 cells (Noninvasive human breast cancer cell line, estrogen receptor positive). Materials and Methods: The human breast cancer MCF- 7 cells were treated with Tamoxifen (2 μM) alone or in combination with Th...
متن کاملEstrogen regulates Ah responsiveness in MCF-7 breast cancer cells.
Cytochrome P450 (CYP)1A1 and CYP1B1, which are under the regulatory control of the aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor (AhR), catalyze the metabolic activation of numerous procarcinogens and the hydroxylation of 17beta-estradiol (E2) at the C-2 and C-4 positions, respectively. There is evidence of cross-talk between estrogen receptor alpha (ERalpha)- and AhR-mediated signaling in breast and endometr...
