“…The most important side effects reported in patients undergoing long-term tamoxifen treatment consist of visual impairment, cataracts, 61 and risk of thromboembolic events. 62,63 Tamoxifen has weak estrogenic properties that can induce endometrial cell proliferation and, consequently, endometrial cancer. 64 In addition, tamoxifen seems to increase the risk of radiation-induced lung and skin fibrosis.…”

Tamoxifen, a selective estrogen receptor modulator, has antifibrotic properties; however, whether it can attenuate renal fibrosis is unknown. In this study, we tested the effects of tamoxifen in a model of hypertensive nephrosclerosis (chronic inhibition of nitric oxide synthesis with L-NAME). After 30 days, treated rats had significantly lower levels of albuminuria as well as lower histologic scores for glomerulosclerosis and interstitial fibrosis than untreated controls. Tamoxifen was renoprotective despite having no effect on the sustained, severe hypertension induced by L-NAME. Tamoxifen prevented the accumulation of extracellular matrix by decreasing the expression of collagen I, collagen III, and fibronectin mRNA and protein. These renoprotective effects associated with inhibition of TGF-b1 and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, and with a significant reduction in a-smooth muscle actin-positive cells in the renal interstitium. Furthermore, tamoxifen abrogated IL-1b-and angiotensin-II-induced proliferation of fibroblasts from both kidney explants and from the NRK-49F cell line. Tamoxifen also inhibited the expression of extracellular matrix components and the production and release of TGF-b1 into the supernatant of these cells. In summary, tamoxifen exhibits antifibrotic effects in the L-NAME model of hypertensive nephrosclerosis, likely through the inhibition of TGF-b1, suggesting that it may have therapeutic use in CKD treatment.

“…Raloxifene and tamoxifen have been shown to cut down the risk of estrogenreceptor positive breast cancers by as much as 50% (Vogel et al 2006). Tamoxifen, a selective estrogen receptor modulator, has demonstrated benefit when used alone as well as in combination with chemotherapy to treat advanced breast cancer.…”
