Abstract

Oestrogens such as 17beta-oestradiol initiates nuclear-gene transcription in gender-specified tissues such as the ovaries and mammaries; and unfortunately too in cancer cells derived from target tissues. Consequently, there has been the development of novel agents for particular cancer therapies that are antagonists of oestrogens for oestrogen-receptor (ER) binding and of drugs with ER-specific interference RNA (RNAi) abilities. Therapeutic-antagonists of oestrogens will be re-designed and biosynthesised and deployed to circumvent the gene DNA-transcription abilities of oestrogens and mimics: and their metabolites in oestrogen-target tissues (see above). Furthermore, opportunities will emerge for adjunct-chemotherapy of particular tissue cancers: and in the prevention of recurrence outcomes. Cytochromes P450 can play an important part in these developments especially for the production of novel metabolites of oestrogens as therapeutic-antagonists of oestrogen-stimulated cancers.
