Specific transcriptional response of four blockers of estrogen receptors on estradiol-modulated genes in the mouse mammary gland

Calvo E. , Luu-The V. , Martel C. , Labrie F.

Introduction: The efficacy and exceptionally good tolerance of estrogen blockade in the treatment of breast cancer is well recognized. Acolbifene (ACOL) is a novel and unique completely free of estrogen-like activity in both the mammary gland and uterus. In theory, this new antiestrogen represents a unique opportunity for a highly potent and specific blockade of estrogen action in the mammary gland and uterus while exerting estrogen-like beneficial effects in other tissues (se...
