A study on the effect of a single dose of tamoxifen on uterine hyperaemia and growth in the rat

K Marshall et al. Br J Pharmacol. 1987 Oct.

Abstract

1 The effect of a single subcutaneous dose of tamoxifen on the rat uterotrophic response was investigated. 2 The parameters examined were uterine blood flow (measured by the microsphere technique), uterine wet and dry weights and the concentrations of cytosolic and nuclear oestrogen receptors. 3 Tamoxifen or its metabolites proved to be capable of eliciting a uterotrophic response of 35-42 days duration. The changes seen in uterine blood flow and weight are discussed in relation to oestrogen receptor distribution.
