Combination of Silibinin and Curcumin Reduced Leptin Receptor Expression in MCF-7 Human Breast Cancer Cell Line [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020 Background: Leptin and leptin receptor (Ob-R) are associated with worse prognosis, distant metastasis, and poor survival of breast cancer. We investigated the cytotoxic effect of silibinin and curcumin, individually and combined, on Ob-R expression in ...

Estradiol and Estrogen Receptor Agonists Oppose Oncogenic Actions of Leptin in HepG2 Cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Obesity is a significant risk factor for certain cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Leptin, a hormone secreted by white adipose tissue, precipitates HCC development. Epidemiology data show that men have a much higher incidence of HCC than
