Abstract:Background:
Cervical cancer is the fourth most prevalent gynecological cancer worldwide, which threatens women's health and causes cancer-related mortality. In the search for effective anticervical cancer drugs, we discovered that β-estradiol (E2), a patent drug for estrogen deficiency syndrome treatment, displays the most potent cytotoxicity against HeLa cells.
Objective:
This study aims to evaluate the growth inhibitory effect of β-estradiol on HeLa cells and explore its underlying mechanisms.
