2,3,7,8‐Tetrachlorodibenzo‐p‐dioxin (TCDD) exhibits remarkably potent antiestrogenic activity. To further elucidate the role of estrogen receptor (ER) regulation in this response, we examined the effects of exposure to TCDD in MCF‐7 human breast cancer cells on ER mRNA levels by using an RNase protection assay, on ER accumulation by using an ER immunocytochemical essay (ER‐ICA), and on ER function by competitive binding assays under conditions of saturating 17β‐estradiol (E2). Comparative studies were conducted with E2 and 12‐O‐tetradecanoylphorbol‐13‐acetate (TPA), as both compounds are known to suppress ER expression. Our results indicate that 1 nM E2 and 100 nM TPA both suppress ER mRNA levels as early as 4 h after exposure and to 33.6% and 16.5% of control levels, respectively, after 72 h. In contrast, no significant effect on ER mRNA levels was attributed to exposure to 10 nM TCDD. A greater than 50% reduction in positive staining was observed by ER‐ICA after 72 h exposure to 1 nM E2 and to 100 nM TPA, while only an 11% reduction in positive staining was observed with 10 nM TCDD. Specific binding of [3H]E2 under saturating conditions (10 nM E2) in whole cells was reduced by 50% in cultures exposed to 100 nM TPA, although no effect on binding was observed with exposure to 10 nM TCDD. In contrast, specific binding using subsaturating 1 nM [3H]E2 was depressed by 49% in MCF‐7 cells exposed to 10 nM TCDD for 72 h. This depression was inhibited by a 1‐h treatment with 5 μM α‐naphthoflavone, which inhibits TCDD‐induced, P450‐mediated, E2 metabolism, and subsequent E2 depletion. In conclusion, while TPA and E2 effectively down‐regulate ER expression, TCDD, under antiestrogenic conditions, has little if any effect on total ER levels in MCF‐7 cells, and thus ER modulation is probably not necessary for the suppression of estrogenic activity in MCF‐7 cells by TCDD. © 1996 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
