Abstract
High-dose synthetic estrogen therapy was the standard treatment of advanced breast cancer for three decades until the discovery of tamoxifen. A range of substituted triphenylethylene synthetic estrogens and diethylstilbestrol were used. It is now known that low doses of estrogens can cause apoptosis in long-term estrogen deprived (LTED) breast cancer cells resistant to antiestrogens. This action of estrogen can explain the reduced breast cancer...
