drug basic information
Drug ID: DB00675 (APRD00123)
Drug Name: Tamoxifen
Drug Method: Tamoxifen sensitive MCF-7 cells were transfected for UCA1 overexpression, while tamoxifen resistant LCC2 and LCC9 cells were transfected with UCA siRNA for UCA1 knockdown. qRT-PCR was performed to analyze UCA1 expression. CCK-8 assay, immunofluorescence staining of cleaved caspase-9, and flow cytometric analysis of Annexin V/PI staining were used to assess tamoxifen sensitivity. Western blot analysis was performed to detect p-AKT and p-mTOR expression.
Drug Response: resistant
Cancer basic information
Cancer: breast cancer
Tissue/Cell: cell line (MCF-7)
