Metformin Augments Panobinostat's Anti-Bladder Cancer Activity by Activating AMP-Activated Protein Kinase

Panobinostat, a histone deacetylase inhibitor, induces histone acetylation and acts against cancer but attenuates its anticancer activity by activating the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a cellular energy sensor that reportedly inhibits the mTOR...
