Selective Estrogen-Receptor Modulators — Mechanisms of Action and Application to Clinical Practice

Riggs, B. Lawrence, Hartmann, Lynn C.·2003·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

The selective estrogen-receptor modulators, or SERMs, chemically diverse nonsteroid compounds, have tertiary structures that permit binding to the estrogen receptor. These compounds have either selective agonist or antagonist effects, depending on the target tissue. This article reviews current information concerning the molecular basis of SERM action and the tissue-selective agonist–antagonist effects of this class of medication. The article also offers a perspective on the therapeutic uses of SERMs and compares the SERMs with estrogen and nonestrogen alternatives.

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.
