Background: Glyphosate (Gly) is a nonselective pesticide with high potential to toxic effects on the reproductive system. Recent studies suggest that Vitamin E can indeed have a positive impact on the reproductive system, while Gly, a nonselective pesticide, has been linked to significant risks of toxicity on reproductive health. It's crucial to be mindful of the potential impacts of such substances on the reproductive system.

- - Silibinin, a flavonoid from milk thistle, shows potential in inhibiting ovarian cancer by affecting cancer cell behavior, including reducing cell viability and migration while promoting apoptosis.
- - Through laboratory techniques like Q-RT-PCR and western blotting, researchers found that silibinin can reverse processes linked to tumor spread (EMT) by altering the expression of key proteins and signaling pathways.
- - In experiments using a mouse model, silibinin significantly reduced tumor growth, suggesting it could be a promising treatment option for ovarian cancer.
