Uses
EM-800, an orally active anti-estrogen, serves as an antagonist to the transcriptional functions of estrogen receptors α (ERα) and β (ERβ). EM-800 possesses anticancer activity, capable of inhibiting the growth of breast cancer induced by 7,12-Dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) (HY-W011845). Furthermore, in ovariectomized animals, EM-800 effectively slows down bone loss. Additionally, EM-800 shows potential in the research of breast and endometrial cancers, while exerting beneficial effects on bone and lipid metabolism[1][2].
