Abstract

The ZR-75-1 ER positive breast cancer cell line, xenografted in female nude mice, has been used to determine the effect of tamoxifen on cell proliferation (as measured by mitosis) and cell death (as evidenced by apoptosis and necrosis). After 2 days treatment, there was a significant rise in apoptosis (p
