Cell-cycle distributions after treatment with either 2ME alone or loaded with MNPs-Fe3O4 (100:1) for 24 hours. (A) Control group. (B) MNPs-Fe3O4 alone. (C) 1 μM 2ME. (D) 2 μM 2ME. (E) Copolymer of 1 μM 2ME with MNPs-Fe3O4 (100:1). (F) Copolymer of 2 μM 2ME with MNPs-Fe3O4 (100:1).
Notes: *P > 0.05, when compared with the control group; #P < 0.05, when compared with MNPs-Fe3O4 and control groups; **P < 0.05, when compared with 2ME alone.
Abbreviations: MNPs-Fe3O4, magnetic nanoparticles of Fe3O4; 2ME, 2-methoxyestradiol.
