Besides undergoing O-demethylation in vivo the triarylethylene antiestrogen Nitromifene (cas 10448-84-7) [1(4-(2-pyrrolidinylethoxy)phenyl)-1(4-methoxy)-phenyl-2-phenyl-2-nitroethene, 1] undergoes biotransformation via nitroreduction, ethene bond cleavage, and pyrrolidine ring oxidation affording ketone metabolites 2 and 3 and a lactam metabolite 4. Estrogen receptor (ER) affinities of 1, 2, and 4 were, in turn, 1.7, 0. l, and 3.8% that of estradiol in MCF 7 human breast cancer cells, and these compounds inhibited by 50% the proliferation of MCF 7 cells at respective concentrations of 1.1, 5.6, and 2.0 μM The inhibitory effect of 4 was fully reversible by estradiol, but that of 2 was only partially reversible. Also 3, which did not interact with ER, inhibited proliferation by 44% at a concentration of 10 μM. These results suggested that in constrast to 4, the effects of 2 and 3 were due in part to interaction with sites distinct from ER. Antiestrogen binding sites and calmodulin have been suggested to mediate antiproliferative effects of drugs. Interaction of ligands with the former sites has been proposed to antagonize the growth promoting effect of histamine. Although 2 and 3 had high affinities for these sites, their inhibitory effects on MCF 7 cell growth were largely unaffected by the presence of histidine, the source of intracellular histamine. Thus, the relationship between antiestrogen binding site affinity and antiproliferative effects of 2 and 3 was not clarified. In contrast, MCF 7 cell growth suppression potencies paralleled calmodulin antagonist potencies of 1 and 2 suggesting that interaction of 1 and 2 with calmodulin may contribute to their anticancer effects.
