Metformin Promotes 2-Deoxy-2-[ 18 F]Fluoro-D-Glucose Uptake in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells Through FoxO1-Mediated Downregulation of Glucose-6-Phosphatase
ConclusionsWe propose that treatment of HCC cells with Met may be a useful strategy for improving the efficacy of [18F]FDG as a tracer for PET/CT imaging of HCC tumors in patients.
