It has been demonstrated that the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system of male mice is more sensitive to the neurotoxic effects of methamphetamine (MA). The basis for this difference can be related to oestrogen, which has the capacity to function as a…

It has been demonstrated that the gonadal steroid hormone estrogen can exert neuroprotective effects upon the nigrostriatal dopaminergic (NSDA) system against methamphetamine (MA)-induced neurotoxicity in female, but not male, mice. In contrast, the…

The effects of 17beta-estradiol and the anti-estrogen, tamoxifen, on methamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic system were examined in ovariectomized CD-1 mice. In Experiment 1, striatal dopamine concentrations from…

To evaluate tamoxifen-induced glandular tissue density changes in women who are on an adjuvant tamoxifen therapy. We examined serial mammograms of 27 women (average age 67) who had surgery for unilateral breast carcinoma and were on tamoxifen for 5…

The antiestrogen, tamoxifen (TMX), has been shown to function as a neuroprotectant against the nigrostriatal dopaminergic (NSDA) neurotoxin, methamphetamine (MA), within male mice. In the present report, we examined the effects of a combined infusion…
