metformin and Carcinoma 256, Walker

metformin has been researched along with Carcinoma 256, Walker in 4 studies

Metformin: A biguanide hypoglycemic agent used in the treatment of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus not responding to dietary modification. Metformin improves glycemic control by improving insulin sensitivity and decreasing intestinal absorption of glucose. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p289)
metformin : A member of the class of guanidines that is biguanide the carrying two methyl substituents at position 1.

Carcinoma 256, Walker: A transplantable carcinoma of the rat that originally appeared spontaneously in the mammary gland of a pregnant albino rat, and which now resembles a carcinoma in young transplants and a sarcoma in older transplants. (Stedman, 25th ed)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Metformin treatment not only decreases the tumour growth but also improves the protein metabolism in gastrocnemius muscle in tumour-bearing rats."5.43Metformin treatment modulates the tumour-induced wasting effects in muscle protein metabolism minimising the cachexia in tumour-bearing rats. ( Gomes-Marcondes, MC; Oliveira, AG, 2016)
"Our data allow us to suggest that metformin, reducing the stimulatory effect of obesity on tumor development, has a potential role in the management of cancers."3.81Metformin reduces the Walker-256 tumor development in obese-MSG rats via AMPK and FOXO3a. ( Akamine, EH; de Carvalho, MH; de Queiroz, EA; Fortes, ZB; Sampaio, SC, 2015)
"Chronic metformin treatment improved the glycemic homeostasis in pre-diabetic MSG-rats, glucose intolerance, tissue insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia and decreased the fat tissue accretion."3.80Protective effect of metformin against walker 256 tumor growth is not dependent on metabolism improvement.
