Our major hypothesis for these studies was that tamoxifen's varied effects on the endometrium might be due in part to differences in effect on estrogen and progesterone receptors [ER, progesterone receptor isoform A (PRA), and progesterone receptor isoform B (PRB)]. We aimed to evaluate the changes in histology in serial endometrial biopsies (Em bx), Papanicolaou smears (Pap smears), and endometrial ultrasounds as well as changes in the expression of ER, PRA, and PRB in response to tamoxifen. We propose that understanding and correlating the dynamics of receptor expression with histologic and cytologic changes will help us better understand the effect of tamoxifen on the endometrium and its role in the development of endometrial carcinoma in some patients.
