In Vivo
The Tamoxifen-inducible gene knockout strategy has clear advantages in that expression of a gene can be ablated in adult mice at will in a tissue specific manner. To study the role of Med1 in adult heart, 7-week old TmcsMed1-/- mice are given a daily Iintraperitoneal injection of Tamoxifen at a dose of 65 mg/kg for 5 days and killed at selected intervals thereafter. qPCR analysis of RNA shows that the Med1 expression begin to decrease after 3 days of Tamoxifen injection (about 70% decrease), and by 5 days of injection, Med1 expression is almost non-detectable in the heart. Tamoxifen-inducible cardiac-specific disruption of Med1 (TmcsMed1-/-) in adult mice causes dilated cardiomyopathy[3].
In Vitro
Tamoxifen 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].
