Used in research settings as a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM) for studying hormonal pathways. Shows activity in cell-based assays related to estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) modulation. Investigated for potential use in hormone-dependent cancer studies, particularly breast cancer models. Also employed as a reference compound in pharmacological screening for drug development targeting nuclear hormone receptors. Stable under standard storage conditions, suitable for in vitro and in vivo experimentation.
