“…Interestingly, more recent studies suggest that fenofibrate may have an important role as antitumor agents in various cancers such as glioblastoma (Wilk et al, 2012), prostate cancer (Zhao et al, 2013), lung cancer (Liang et al, 2013), breast cancer (Li et al, 2014), endometrial cancer (Saidi et al, 2006), colon cancer (Watanabe et al, 2013), melanoma (Grabacka Jia Liu et al et al, 2006), medulloblastoma (Urbanska et al, 2008) and leukemia (Zak et al, 2010). Fenofibrate decreases metastatic potential of melanoma cells in vitro via downregulation of Akt (Grabacka et al, 2006). Fenofibrate induced apoptosis and decreased proliferation rate in endometrial cancer cells (Saidi et al, 2006), in human and mouse medulloblastoma cell lines (Urbanska et al, 2008), in mantle cell lymphoma (Zak et al, 2010), and in triple-negative breast cancer cells (Li et al, 2014).…”
