Protective action of 17β‐estradiol and tamoxifen on glutamate toxicity in glial cells

Article 2000 EN

Estrogens influence differentiation, growth and function of neurons, but less is known of their effects on glia. In our experiments reported here, the ovarian steroid, 17beta-estradiol, and the "designer", non-steroidal estrogen, tamoxifen, effectively protected C-6 glioma 2B clone cells from the cytotoxicity of the excitatory neurotransmitter, glutamate. Exposure of these cells to 10-20 mM glutam…
