Tamoxifen Suppresses Pancreatic β-Cell Proliferation in Mice
2019-03-22
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Tamoxifen is a mixed agonist/antagonist estrogen analogue that is frequently used to induce conditional gene deletion in mice using Cre-loxP mediated gene recombination. Tamoxifen is routinely employed in extremely high-doses relative to typical human doses to induce efficient gene deletion in mice. Although tamoxifen has been widely assumed to have no influence upon β-cells, the acute developme...
