MCF-7 cells display both nitrobenzylthioinosine (NBMPR)-sensitive (es) and NBMPR-insensitive (ei) equilibrative, but not the Na+-dependent, nucleoside transport. Transport of uridine by es is more sensitive to inhibition by purine nucleosides, whereas the ei component is more sensitive to nucleosides without an amino side group, such as inosine and thymidine. When exposed to 10 microM tamoxifen for 5 days, MCF-7 cells displayed a 44% decrease in the total number of NBMPR-binding sites [Bmax from 245000+/-18000 to 136000+/-25000 sites per cell (mean+/-S.E.M.; n=5; P&lt;0.05)], and a 57% decrease in cell growth with no significant change in binding affinities [Kd from 0.37+/-0.05 to 0.45+/-0.08 nM (n=5; P&gt;0.05)]. Kinetic studies of [3H]uridine transport showed a decrease in the Vmax of the es component from 21.7+/-0.3 (n=8) to 8.4 +/- 2.2 microM/s (n=4; P &lt; 0.05), whereas the Vmax of the ei component [from 4.7 +/- 0.5 (n=8) to 5.8 +/- 1.6 microM/s (n=4; P &gt; 0.05)] and Km values for both components [es from 460 +/- 80 to 630 +/- 280 microM (n&gt;/=4; P &gt; 0.05) and ei from 355 +/- 115 to 440 +/- 220 microM (n&gt;/=4; P &gt; 0.05)] did not change significantly. Oestradiol at 100 nM reversed almost completely the NBMPR-binding site decrease and growth retardation in tamoxifen-treated cells. Thus tamoxifen is shown to cause an oestrogen-reversible decrease of es nucleoside transporters in MCF-7 cells.
