Phenformin-Induced Mitochondrial Dysfunction Sensitizes Hepatocellular Carcinoma for Dual Inhibition of mTOR [PDF]
Purpose: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ranks second in cancer mortality and has limited therapeutic options. We recently described the synergistic effect of allosteric and ATP-site competitive inhibitors against the mTOR for the treatment of HCC ...

Abstract Objectives Most, but not all studies, suggest insulin resistance is associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia, but its impact on prostate volume (PV) changes over time remains unclear. We examined whether higher insulin resistance, measured by Homeostatic Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance (HOMA‐IR), is associated with larger PV and ...

ABSTRACT Background Epigenetic regulation significantly affects immune responses in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). However, the role of RNA N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) modification, especially in obstructive sleep apnea‐hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) within LUAD, is not well understood.

Metabolic Rewiring in Response to Biguanides Is Mediated by mROS/HIF-1a in Malignant Lymphocytes
Summary: Metabolic flexibility allows cells to adapt to various environments and limits the efficacy of metabolic drugs. Therapeutic targeting of cancer metabolism relies on defining limiting requirements and vulnerabilities in the highly dynamic ...

Metformin selectively targets redox control of complex I energy transduction
Many guanide-containing drugs are antihyperglycaemic but most exhibit toxicity, to the extent that only the biguanide metformin has enjoyed sustained clinical use. Here, we have isolated unique mitochondrial redox control properties of metformin that are

Phenformin inhibits the metastasis of MDA-MB-231 cells in nude mice.
(A) The luciferase-tagged MDA-MB-231 cells were inoculated intracardially into female nude mice. After the injections, the mice were separated into the control and phenformin groups (10 mice per group).

Some metabolic effects of phenformin and sodium dichloroacetate in rats.
An animal model of hyperlactataemia induced by phenformin, an orally-active antidiabetic drug, has been developed using streptozotocin-diabetic rats. A comparison of blood metabolite concentrations of fed, starved and streptozotocin-diabetic rats showed ...

Inhibition of Bovine Adenosine Deaminase by Anti-Hyperglycemic Agents Metformin and Phenformin [PDF]
Metformin (1,1-dimethylbiguanide) is an anti-hyperglycemic agent that is commonly used in the oral treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Phenformin (phenethylbiguanide) is its structural analog.
