Özet

Objectives: Endometrial cancer remains a leading cause of death in women and therefore the development of new therapies is essential. The present study evaluated the effects of nimesulide alone, cisplatin alone, and combination of cisplatin and nimesulide on an Ishikawa cell line with respect to cytotoxicity and induction of apoptosis in vitro.
