We report here that the antiestrogen tamoxifen (TAM) induces cell death in human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. We assessed the type of cell death induced by TAM in this breast cancer cell line on the basis of morphological and biochemical characteristics. Dying cells showed morphological characteri

In this study the ability of the new pure anti-estrogen IcI 182,780 to modulate the cytotoxic action of adriamycin (ADR) on parental and ADR-resistant MCF-7 (MCF-7 ADRr) human breast-cancer cells was investigated and compared with that of tamoxifen (TAM). TAM enhanced ADR cytotoxicity in MCF-7 ADRr
## Abstract Both epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and curcumin have shown efficacy in various __in vivo__ and __in vitro__ models of cancer. This study was designed to determine the efficacy of these naturally derived polyphenolic compounds __in vitro__ and __in vivo__, when given in combination. St
Tamoxifen, a synthetic antiestrogen, is known for its antitumoral action in vivo; however, it is well accepted that many tamoxifen effects are elicited via estrogen receptor-independent routes. Previously, we reported that tamoxifen induces PKC translocation in fibroblasts. In the present study, we
## Abstract Benzyl salicylate, benzyl benzoate and butylphenylmethylpropional (Lilial) are added to bodycare cosmetics used around the human breast. We report here that all three compounds possess oestrogenic activity in assays using the oestrogenβresponsive MCF7 human breast cancer cell line. At 3
