Interaction of bis-β-chlorethylamine estrogen derivatives with human ovarian adenocarcinoma cells

Abstract

Antiproliferative effect of bis-β-chlorethylamine estrogen derivatives on human ovarian adenocarcinoma CaOV cells depends on the dose of the drug. In concentrations of 10−5 and 5×10−6 M they inhibit, while in a dose of 5×10−7 M stimulate cell proliferation. It is assumed that CaOV cells express estradiol receptors. The interaction of these cytostatics with estrogen-binding sites on CaOV cells is demonstrated.
