Biological Activity

Description Toremifene Citrate (NK 622, NSC 613680) is an oral selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), used in the treatment of advanced breast cancer.
Targets
Estrogen receptor [1]
In vitro Toremifene (7.5 mM) causes approximately 60% of the cells to exhibit morphologic characteristics typical of cells undergoing programmed death, or apoptosis in human breast cancer cells. Toremifene (5-10 mM) results in elevated levels of TRPM-2 and TGF beta 1 mRNAs in in vitro or in vivo grown tumor cells. Toremifene causes growth inhibition of estrogen-sensitive breast cancer cells by inducing some cells to undergo apoptosis and by inhibiting other cells from entering mitosis. [1] Toremifene induces a dose-dependent level of adducts that is lower than that observed for TAM. Toremifene significantly enhances endogenous DNA adduct formation. [2] Toremifene affects the cell turnover by inhibiting mitotic activity and modifying abundant spontaneous apoptosis in DMBA-induced rat mammary carcinoma. [3]
In vivo Toremifene, at the highest tested dose, increases the incidence of hepatocellular carcinomas in the DEN-initiated groups to a level one-third that observed with Tamoxifen administration to DEN-initiated rats. Toremifene increases the incidence of hypernephromas in previously DEN-initiated rats. [4] Toremifene results in aneuploidy in 50% of the cells examined and compared with the 85% level induced by Tamoxifen in female Sprague-Dawley rats. [5]
