The growth of chemically induced mammary tumors is inhibited by both hormone manipulation as well as by retinoids. Numerous mammary carcinoma cell lines are also inhibited by retinoids. Co-treatment of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer cells resulted in an additive effect in terms of inhibition of cellular proliferation. The addition of varying concentrations of retinoic acid (RA) to varying concentrations of tamoxifen (TMX) resulted in an additive effect on the inhibition of proliferation of the ER-positive human carcinoma cell lines (MCF-7). Co-treatment of MCF-7 cells over time with RA and TMX resulted in enhanced inhibition of growth. A similar phenomenon was observed when other synthetic retinoids were combined with TMX. This enhanced inhibition by the combination of retinoids and TMX was also observed with other ER-positive cell lines (ZR-75, T47-D), while no effect was noted on the ER-negative cell lines (MDA-MB-231, Hs578T).
