Development of a Clinically Relevant Temozolomide-Resistant Human Glioblastoma A-172 Cell Line
Background: Glioblastoma is the most aggressive and deadly form of brain cancer, with a median survival of approximately 14 months. A major factor contributing to an unfavorable prognosis is the development of resistance to temozolomide (TMZ), the current first-line chemotherapeutic drug for glioblastoma. Thus, developing reliable preclinical models of

Effects of the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and related peptides on glioblastoma cell growth in vitro [PDF]
The growth rate of numerous cancer cell lines is regulated in part by actions of neuropeptides of the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) family, which also includes pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide (PACAP), glucagon, and peptide histidine ...

Remission of invasive, cancer stem-like glioblastoma xenografts using lentiviral vector-mediated suicide gene therapy [PDF]
Background: Glioblastoma is the most frequent and most malignant primary brain tumor with a poor prognosis. The translation of therapeutic strategies for glioblastoma from the experimental phase into the clinic has been limited by insufficient animal ...

Inhibition of mitochondrial translation suppresses glioblastoma stem cell growth [PDF]
Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) resist current glioblastoma (GBM) therapies. GSCs rely highly on oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), whose function requires mitochondrial translation.

ESTABLISHMENT OF HUMAN GLIOBLASTOMA MULTIFORME CELL LINE, G5A [PDF]
A new cell line, G5A, was established from a human glioblastoma multiforme of the primary site and maintained for 25 months, subcultivated 36 times. The cloned cells showed morphologically epithelial-like patterns and loss of glial filaments.
