Article Synopsis
- Obesity is linked to higher mortality rates in ovarian cancer, with leptin, a hormone produced by fat tissue, playing a significant role in cancer development.
- The study explored how varying levels of leptin influence the growth of ovarian cancer cells (specifically OVCAR-3 and MDAH-2774), assessing cell viability and cytokine expression changes.
- Results showed that leptin promotes cell proliferation in both cancer lines, affecting various cytokines differently; for instance, IL-1 levels increased in OVCAR-3, while TGF-β increased in MDAH-2774 after leptin treatment.
