The kinetic of release of the tissular polypeptide antigen (TPA) by MCF-7 cells synchronised by sequential treatment with hydroxytamoxifen (OH-TAM) and 17 beta-estradiol has been studied. The present findings confirm the proliferative effect of estradiol on MCF-7 cells, with a shortening of the doubling time (TD) (22.2 h versus 24.8 h) and an increase in the growing fraction (Fc) (94% versus 81%) when compared with the same parameters measured in cells rescued from OH-TAM but not treated with estradiol. In addition, the action of estradiol was followed by a simultaneous increase in the amount of TPA in the culture medium related with the phases G2/M and G1 of the mitotic cycle. This phenomenon seems to be the reason for the steplike shape of the TPA released curves. The experimental results suggest that in MCF-7 cells the sequential combination of antiestrogenic agents and estrogens leads to a cellular synchronization. Furthermore this synchronization is maintained for at least 3 cycles of cell division.
