Abstract: Objective: To investigate the effect of 2-methoxyestradiol on growth inhibition and apoptosis of C6 glioma cells and neurons in vitro. Methods: C6 glioma cells and neurons were divided into the control group and four 2-methoxyestradiol treatment groups. C6 glioma cells and neurons were treated by different doses of 2-methoxyestradiol for different times and observed by microscopy and electromicroscopy. The viability was determined by MTT assay and the cellcycle and apoptosis were determined by flow cytometry. Results: 2-methoxyestradiol caused a dose and timedependent inhibition on the C6 glioma cells viability(P<0.05). The population of C6 glioma cells in the G1 and S phase was decreased while in the G2 phase it wasincreased by 2-methoxyestradiol in a dose and time-dependent manner(P<0.05); However, 2-methoxyestradiol had no effect on neurons. Conclusion: 2-methoxyesradiol can inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of C6 glioma cells, but has no effect on neurons.

Key words: 2-methoxyestradiol, Apoptosis, C6 glioma cell, Neurons
