PRL induced the activation of ERK1/2 and rpS6 and metformin attenuated this effect. We preliminary observed that phospho-ERK1/2 levels were the most elevated at 6 h after the addition of PRL, and this increase was time-dependent (data not shown).Total protein extracted from HEC1B cells a and HEC265 cells b exposed to 500 ng/mL of PRL with or without 1 mM metformin for 6 h was subjected to western blotting. Met indicates metformin
