Effect of tamoxifen and fulvestrant long-term treatments on ROS production and (pro/anti)-oxidant enzymes mRNA levels in a MCF-7-derived breast cancer cell line
2016
Background
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are key players in the apoptotic effects induced by short-term tamoxifen treatment of breast cancer cells, but also in acquired resistance following long-term treatment. Whereas the use of the selective estrogen receptor down-regulator fulvestrant is promising, especially in patients who develop tamoxifen resistance, only few studies addressed its implication in the modulation of cellular redox status.
