Lesson Outline
Review definition of metabolite and prodrug.
Discuss the effects of estrogen on the growth of cancer cells.
Identify the compound Tamoxifen as a selective estrogen receptor modulator.
Outline its effect as an antagonist to specific estrogen receptors, which when it binds, will prevent estrogen from binding to the cancer cells and not allow the cells to receive the signals for growth,
Show with a diagram how the metabolite of Tamoxifen is an active metabolite, about 100x more active than the basic drug.
