Well done. You've clicked the tower. This would actually achieve something if you had logged in first. Use the key for that. The name takes you home. This is where all the applicables sit. And you can't apply any changes to my site unless you are logged in.

Our policy is best summarized as "we don't care about _you_, we care about _them_", no emails, so no forgetting your password. You have no rights. It's like you don't even exist. If you publish material, I reserve the right to remove it, or use it myself.

Don't impersonate. Don't name someone involuntarily. You can lose everything if you cross the line, and no, I won't cancel your automatic payments first, so you'll have to do it the hard way. See how serious this sounds? That's how serious you're meant to take these.

Electroporation-mediated Metformin for effective anticancer treatment of triple-negative breast cancer cells

arXiv:2404.14353v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: In this research, we investigated the efficacy of Metformin, the most commonly administered type-2 diabetes drug for triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) treatment, due to its various anticancer properties. It is a plant-based bio-compound, synthesized as a novel biguanide, called dimethyl biguanide or metformin. One of the ways it operates is by hindering electron transport chain-complex I, in mitochondria, which causes a drop-in energy (ATP) generation. This eventually builds energetic stress and a decline in energy. Therefore, the natural cellular processes and proliferating tumor cells are obstructed. Here, we used electroporation, where, the MDA-MB-231, human TNBC cells were subjected to high intensity, short-duration electrical pulses (EP) in the presence of Metformin. The cell viability results indicate lower cell viability of 43.45% as compared to 85.20% with drug alone at 5mM concentration. This indicates that Metformin, the most common diabetes drug could also be explored for cancer treatment.
