Abstract:
Copper is one of the essential elements in the human body,playing various physiological roles.Maintai-ning copper homeostasis is crucial for health.Recent researches have uncovered that copper homeostasis imbalance is closely associated with the occurrence,progression,prognosis,and drug resistance of gynecological malignancies.The employment of copper and its complexes in antitumor therapy has emerged as a promising novel approach,attracting considerable research attention.Based on the relationship between copper homeostasis imbalance and gynecological tumors,this paper provides a concise review of the current status and progress of copper and its complexes in the treat-ment of gynecological tumors.
