It is interesting to remind that pioglitazone the drug use in the experiments is associated with an increased risk of bladder cancer (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bcp.12306/abstract;jsessionid=0BF19A6B1135280E0C6DAAB5F9A2BF21.f02t03) and was withdrawn in France for this reason. It could be very interesting that the authors discuss this strange fact. Why imagine to use a drug known to cause be associated with an increase risk of cancer to treat cancer?
