| Research Abstract |
Hyperinsulinemia resulted from high carbohydrate diet acceralated the progression of murine renal cell carcinoma. Metformin inhibited the progression of murine renal cell carcinoma due to improvement of hyperinsulinemia and/or direct tumor inhibitory effect. Insulin receptor overexpresssion was independent predictor of a favorable outcome in patients with renal cell carcinoma who underwent radical or partial nephrectomy.
