“4-Dione also led to significant growth inhibition in ZR-75-1 cells, although the active concentrations (IC 50 , 15 nm) are in the upper range of the plasma concentrations (1-10 nm) found in women (215-218).”

In the citing paper
“In ZR-75-1 cells, concentrations of DHT in the incubation medium similar to the plasma levels found in normal women (215-217) and breast cancer patients (Ref.218; 0.3-0.7 nm) are potent inhibitors of the mitogenic effect of E 2 and even inhibit growth in the absence of estrogens (208).”

In the citing paper
“The data summarized above clearly support the hypothesis that at least part of the antagonism observed between the action of androgens and estrogens in breast cancer cells (208,211,215,240) may be explained by the heterologous downregulation of the ER by an AR-mediated mechanism.”

In the citing paper
“The concentration of DHT needed to exert a half-maximal suppression of ER binding activity (0.07-0.1 nm) is lower than the concentration known to induce binding and nuclear retention of the ER (215, 234).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
