Neuroinflammation in Autoimmune Disease and Primary Brain Tumors: The Quest for Striking the Right Balance

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2021
According to classical dogma, the central nervous system (CNS) is defined as an immune privileged space. The basis of this theory was rooted in an incomplete understanding of the CNS microenvironment, however, recent advances such as the identification ...

Killing of Brain Tumor Cells by Hypoxia-Responsive Element Mediated Expression of BAX

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 1999
The presence of radioresistant hypoxic cells in human brain tumors limits the overall effectiveness of conventional fractionated radiation therapy. Tumor-specific therapies that target hypoxic cells are clearly needed. We have investigated the expression

Stem Cell-Based Cell Carrier for Targeted Oncolytic Virotherapy: Translational Opportunity and Open Questions

open access: yesViruses, 2015
Oncolytic virotherapy for cancer is an innovative therapeutic option where the ability of a virus to promote cell lysis is harnessed and reprogrammed to selectively destroy cancer cells.

Etomoxir, a carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 inhibitor, combined with temozolomide reduces stemness and invasiveness in patient-derived glioblastoma tumorspheres

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2022
Introduction The importance of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) in the bioenergetics of glioblastoma (GBM) is being realized. Etomoxir (ETO), a carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1) inhibitor exerts cytotoxic effects in GBM, which involve interrupting the ...

cGAS-STING pathway targeted therapies and their applications in the treatment of high-grade glioma [version 1; peer review: 3 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2022
Median survival of patients with glioblastoma (GBM) treated with standard of care which consists of maximal safe resection of the contrast-enhancing portion of the tumor followed by radiation therapy with concomitant adjuvant temozolomide (TMZ) remains ...

A Hypoxia-Regulated Adeno-Associated Virus Vector for Cancer-Specific Gene Therapy

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2001
The presence of hypoxic cells in human brain tumors is an important factor leading to resistance to radiation therapy. However, this physiological difference between normal tissues and tumors also provides the potential for designing cancer-specific gene

5-Aminolevulinic acid fluorescence guided resection of malignant glioma: Hong Kong experience

open access: yesAsian Journal of Surgery, 2018
Summary: Background: 5-Aminolevulinic Acid (5-ALA) induced fluorescence is useful in guiding glioma resection. The extent of 5-ALA accumulation is beyond gadolinium contrast enhancement.1,2 Supratotal resection may be achieved, potentially granting ...

Notch Activation Is Associated with Tetraploidy and Enhanced Chromosomal Instability in Meningiomas

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2008
The Notch signaling cascade is deregulated in diverse cancer types. Specific Notch function in cancer is dependent on the cellular context, the particular homologs expressed, and cross-talk with other signaling pathways.
