After injection, patients experience minimal swelling and bruising
In cases of severe liver or kidney impairment, the drug may build up in the body, increasing the risk of side effects
More significantly, metformin has a meaningful preventative effect against cardiovascular disease and potential long-term complications of EC
Collectively, co-targeting metabolic dependencies (e.g., glutaminase inhibitors, ammonium scavengers) and death evasion mechanisms (e.g., ferroptosis inducers, ATF6 inhibitors) may overcome therapeutic resistance, with preclinical validation urgently needed for strategies combining autophagy modulation (AMPK/mTOR/ULK1 targeting), ferroptosis potentiation (system Xc blockade), and stromal disruption (CAF-derived glutamine inhibition) (205, 206)
