Prolonged Release of 2-methoxyestradiol from Hydrogels

摘要

The effects of 2-methoxyestradiol on the survival of human osteosarcoma (MG63) cells was evaluated by application of a treatment regimen utilizing hydrogels for slow release. Variables were hydrogel composition, and method of drug application. Results show that encapsulated 2-ME achieves prolonged effect on MG63 cell survival.
