pubmed:abstractText |
Tamoxifen (TAM) is a nonsteroidal antiestrogen that has been widely used in the treatment of breast cancer through its anti-estrogen activity. Recent studies show that TAM is cytotoxic to both estrogen receptor (ER)-positive and ER-negative cells via the induction of apoptosis. However, the molecular mechanisms of this effect are not well understood. In the present study, we investigated the roles of c-Src, ERK, AKT and c-Cbl ubiquitin ligases during TAM-induced apoptosis of MCF-7 cells.
