## Abstract ## BACKGROUND. It was recently reported that high expression of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptor γ (PPARγ) and low expression of cyclooxygenase‐2 (COX‐2) might be involved in the inhibition of ovarian tumor progression and confirmed that PPARγ activation could suppress COX‐2

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor ␥ (PPAR␥) is expressed largely in adipose tissues and plays an important role in adipocyte differentiation. Several studies have recently shown that ligands of PPAR␥ could lead to growth inhibition in some malignancies. In our study, we focused on pancreati
## Abstract Peroxisome‐proliferator activated receptor‐gamma (PPARγ) belongs to a family of nuclear receptors and acts as receptor for peroxisome‐proliferators, steroids, retinoic acids, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Our study examined the transcript levels of peroxisome‐proliferator activated r
## Abstract Interaction of insulin‐like growth factor receptor I (IGF‐IR) with its ligands has been reported to induce cell proliferation, transformation and blockade of cell apoptotic functions. IGF‐IR is overexpressed on numerous tumor cell types and its blockade could be of importance for anti‐c
