BTC is a selective estrogen receptor (ER) modulator (SERM) that acts as a selective estrogen mimic (SEM).
BTC is a selective estrogen receptor (ER) modulator (SERM) that acts as a selective estrogen mimic (SEM). BTC has been found to be both estrogenic and antiproliferative in ER-positive endocrine-resistant breast cancer cell lines that overexpress protein kinase C alpha (PKCα), which is often associated with tamoxifen resistance. BTC caused regression of endocrine-resistant breast cancer xenografts, and did not support the growth of hormone-dependent xenografts in vivo or cause an increase in uterine weight. As in the case with raloxifene and estradiol, BTC tumor regression was accompanied by the exit of ERα from the nucleus, suggesting extranuclear ERα may be involved in the mehanism of action.

A convenient sensor is developed for electrochemical assay of Hg2+ in dairy product using the optimal Cu2+-based metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs) as signal reporting. Benefiting from specific recognition between Hg2+ and thymine (T)-rich DNA strands, the interferences of milk matrices are
An efficient and simple metal-organic framework (MOF) assisted matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) microextraction was developed for the extraction of the five saponins in P. ginseng leaves. The target analyses were detected by ultra high performance chromatography coupled with time-of-flight MS.
