“Most importantly, pharmacological blockade of swelling-activated taurine efflux by tamoxifen or NPPB caused proliferating cervical cancer cells to arrest in G0/G1, suggesting that the activity of this efflux was associated with G1/S checkpoint progression.”
“The results indicated that taurine pre-treatment showed significant increment in the levels of GSH content, reduction in DNA fragmentation and ladder formation in hepatic tissue, suggesting the antioxidant activity of taurine may reduce the toxic effects of MTX and TAM.”

“The typical VRAC blockers, NPPB, IAA‐94, and tamoxifen blocked low divalent cation‐induced glutamate and taurine release and LY loading, presumed due to hemichannel opening.”
“The present study was undertaken to investigate modulatory effects of taurine on the nephrotoxicity of TAM with special reference to protection against disruption of nonenzymatic and enzymatic antioxidants.”
“ Tamoxifen (20 microM in artificial cerebrospinal fluid), applied topically, inhibited the ischemia-evoked efflux of aspartate, glutamate, taurine and phosphoethanolamine.”
