“…In addition, we observed downregulation of vitamin D receptor (VDR) expression during OIS (Figures 2A&B). This is in line with previous reports showing reduced nuclear VDR activity in mouse fibroblasts expressing oncogenic Ras [96], instability of VDR transcripts in tumor cells [97], and stress-induced senescence in mouse vascular smooth muscle cells lacking VDR [98]. …”

“…In fact, clinical trials from phase I to II of oral tamoxifen administration in MM patients have been previously stopped for high neurotoxicity [57,58]. In these trials, tamoxifen was probably not appropriate due to its poor efficacy [14] but it is likely that its administration through drug delivery systems like those described previously [25] and here would have given more encouraging results.…”

“…At micromolar concentrations, we found that it decreases the proliferation of several MM cell lines, mainly by arresting cells at the G1-phase of the cell cycle. Previous investigations have shown that both tissue and cell distribution profiles of anticancer drugs can be controlled by their entrapment in submicronic colloidal systems [24,25]. Furthermore, we previously reported that drug delivery nanosystems improve the antitumoral activity of RU in breast cancer cells and tumors from MCF-7 cells xenografts [26].…”

“…In an in vitro test in which MELN cells were exposed to nanoparticles but separated from cells by culture inserts, both Both nanospheres and nanocapsules made of poly(d,l-lactic acid), PEG-functionalised or not (PEG-PLA and PLA, respectively) and containing the maximum obtainable level of incorporated AE (see [69] for a review) were analysed for their electric charge, their mean diameter, their AE-loading and their size stability at 4 • C. The nanoparticle size was measured by quasielastic laser light scattering using a Nanosizer N4 Plus (Coulter electronics, USA). The amount of AE (either RU or Tam) incorporated into the drug carriers as well as the half-lives of the AE-containing vectors were measured from the capacity of the chosen anti-oestrogen to inhibit E 2 -induced luciferase activity in MELN cells (MCF-7 breast cancer cells stably expressing a luciferase reporter gene driven by an E 2 -inducible promoter -ERE-␤ globin-LUC) [70].…”
