Abstract
In the present study, the antitumor activity of activated recombinant human anti-Mullerian hormone (rAMH) against the NBL-7 and OVCAR3 cell lines was investigated. It was shown that the hormone contained in highly purified preparations not only has the ability to bind to the recombinant type II receptor (MISRII), but also possesses a cytotoxic effect against cells expressing MISRII. The obtained data may underlie the basis for the development of the first domestic anticancer drug based on activated rAMH.
