2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin exhibits antiestrogenic activity and induces cytochromes P-450 in estrogen-dependent MCF-7 human breast-cancer cells. To determine whether induction of 2- or 16 alpha-hydroxylation of 17 beta-estradiol has a role in this antiestrogenic activity, MCF-7 cells which were exposed to this xenobiotic for 72 hrs were incubated with either [2-3H] or [16 alpha-3H] 17 beta-estradiol and the extent of tritiated H2O formation, indicative of site-specific hydroxylation, was determined. 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin-treated MCF-7 cultures showed an 8-fold increase in 2-hydroxylation and a 2-fold increase in 16 alpha-hydroxylation. These results support the suggestion that increased hydroxylation of 17 beta-estradiol may have a role in the antiestrogenic activity of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin in MCF-7 cells.
