| Application: | The 4-Hydroxytamoxifen analytical standard can be used as follows:• Determination of tamoxifen and its three metabolites from dried blood spot (DBS) discs by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-electrospr • Simultaneous estimation of tamoxifen, 4-hydroxytamoxifen, and endoxifen from DBS samples by UHPLC-MS/MS • Development and validation of a non-aqueous capillary electrophoretic (NACE) method coupled with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (C4D) to analyze tamoxifen and its three main metabolites after their liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) from human plasma samples obtained from breast cancer patients • Multi-residue analysis of human plasma samples to quantify tamoxifen and its degradation products using the non-aqueous capillary electrophoretic (NACE) method combined with UV-detection • Combined detection of tamoxifen and centchroman, along with their degradation products in human plasma samples by LC-ESI-MS/MS |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Metabolite of the chemotherapeutic drug tamoxifen, exhibiting more potent estrogen agonist/antagonist activity than the parent drug. Also active as intra-membranous inhibitor of lipid peroxidation. |
| General description: | 4-Hydroxytamoxifen is an antiestrogenic agent and one of the active metabolites of tamoxifen, formed upon its hydroxylation cytochrome P4502D6 (CYP2D6). Tamoxifen is used significantly in breast cancer as hormonal therapy. |
