Estradiol-Loaded Poly(ε-caprolactone)/Silk Fibroin Electrospun Microfibers Decrease Osteoclast Activity and Retain Osteoblast Function.

Estrogen, a steroid hormone, plays an important role in modulating osteoclast proliferation and development. Estrogen deficiency boosts osteoclast activity, leading to osteoporosis in elderly women. In this study, 17-ß estradiol (E2)-loaded poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)/silk fibroin (SF) electrospun mi... View More
