The effects of oestradiol (Oe2), oestrone (Oe1), oestriol (Oe3), oestetrol (Oe4) on the induction of the progesterone receptor (PgR) and growth of MCF-7 cells are compared. All the four oestrogens increased cell PgR concentration. Analysis of the dose-response curves shows induction by Oe2 to be 10 times and 50 times greater than Oe3 and Oe4, respectively. Oe1 and Oe2 are equally effective, even with consideration of metabolic conversion of O31 into Oe2. When compared with untreated cells, Oe2, Oe3, and Oe4 do not influence significantly the plating efficiency but all 3 hormones increase thymidine incorporation of the cells in log phase growth. Oe2, Oe3 and Oe4 are able to rescue the growth inhibition induced by antioestrogens. The respective potency compared to Oe2 is again in the range of 10 and 50 times lower for Oe3 and Oe4, respectively. On the other hand Oe1 decreases plating efficiency, thymidine incorporation and does not rescue the growth inhibition induced by antioestrogens when the metabolic conversion of Oe1 into Oe2 is prevented. Thus, Oe3 and Oe4 behave like complete Oe2 agonists whereas Oe1 has dissociated effects, agonist on PgR induction and antagonist on cell growth.
