Molecular mechanisms of the metabolite 4-hydroxytamoxifen of the anticancer drug tamoxifen: use of a model microorganism

A strain of the thermophilic eubacterium Bacillus stearothermophilus was used as a model system to identify membrane mediated cytotoxic effects of 4-hydroxytamoxifen, following previous studies with tamoxifen.
