COA Handling Instructions

Tamoxifène (ICI 47699) est un modulateur sélectif des récepteurs des œstrogènes (SERM) qui bloque l'action des œstrogènes dans les cellules du sein et peut activer l'activité des œstrogènes dans d'autres cellules, comme les os, le foie, et les cellules utérines. Tamoxifène est un puissant activateur de Hsp90 et améliore l'activité d'ATPase du chaperon moléculaire Hsp90. Tamoxifène active l'autophagie et induit l'apoptosis.

Tamoxifen (ICI 47699) ist ein selektiver estrogen receptor-Modulator (SERM), der die Östrogenwirkung in Brustzellen blockiert und die Östrogenaktivität in anderen Zellen, wie Knochen-, Leber- und Gebärmutterzellen, aktivieren kann. Tamoxifen ist ein potenter Hsp90-Aktivator und steigert die Aktivität des molekularen Hsp90-Chaperons ATPase. Tamoxifen aktiviert die autophagy und induziert die apoptosis.

Tamoxifen (ICI 47699) is an orally active, selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) which blocks estrogen action in breast cells and can activate estrogen activity in other cells, such as bone, liver, and uterine cells. Tamoxifen is a potent Hsp90 activator and enhances the Hsp90 molecular chaperone ATPase activity. Tamoxifen also potent inhibits infectious EBOV Zaire and Marburg (MARV) with IC50 of 0.1 µM and 1.8 µM, respectively. Tamoxifen activates autophagy and induces apoptosis. Tamoxifen also can induce gene knockout of CreER(T2) transgenic mouse.

    Description

    Tamoxifen (ICI 47699) is an orally active, selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) which blocks estrogen action in breast cells and can activate estrogen activity in other cells, such as bone, liver, and uterine cells[1][2][3]. Tamoxifen is a potent Hsp90 activator and enhances the Hsp90 molecular chaperone ATPase activity. Tamoxifen also potent inhibits infectious EBOV Zaire and Marburg (MARV) with IC50 of 0.1 µM and 1.8 µM, respectively[5]. Tamoxifen activates autophagy and induces apoptosis[4]. Tamoxifen also can induce gene knockout of CreER(T2) transgenic mouse[6].

    In Vitro

    Tamoxifen (ICI 47699) shows strong inhibition of MCF-7 cells (EC50=1.41 μM) and to a lesser extent the T47D cells (EC50=2.5 μM) but does not affect the MDA-MB-231 cells[2].

    MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

    In Vivo

    Injection of pre-mutant mice with Tamoxifen (75 mg/kg; injected for 5 days at 6 weeks of age) results in the excision of the floxed exon and, thus, in a gene knockout[3].

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
