pubmed:abstractText
A series of oestrogens and anti-oestrogens have been compared with respect to their effects on RNA synthesis in the uterus of immature rats. The normal transcriptional response to oestrogen is a biphasic stimulation of transcription. The first phase is a sharp stimulation of RNA synthesis, 2-4 h after hormone administration which peaks at 7-11-fold unstimulated controls but which rapidly falls to near control levels by 8 h after injection. The second phase is a broad peak of RNA synthesis, typically lasting from 12-32 h after hormone administration and accompanied to a much greater extent than the first phase by increases in precursor pool sizes. Oestradiol-17 beta does not show the second phase of this response. This is presumably due to rapid metabolism as derivatives with a longer tissue half life induce the complete response. The first phase of the response is not induced by tamoxifen but is by monohydroxy tamoxifen.
