Ovarian Cancer Development and Metastasis

Ovarian Metastasis in Endometriod Type Endometrial Cancer

Metformin inhibits the development and metastasis of ovarian cancer.

The aim of this study was to investigate the role of metformin in the regulation of development and metastasis of ovarian carcinoma cell lines in vitro and ovarian cancer in a nude mouse model in vivo. The effects of metformin on the ability of two high-metastatic potential human ovarian cancer cell lines (SKOV3 and HO8910-PM) to adhere, invade an...
