Molecular and Genetic Determinants of Glioma Cell Invasion. [PDF]
A diffusely invasive nature is a major obstacle in treating a malignant brain tumor, "diffuse glioma", which prevents neurooncologists from surgically removing the tumor cells even in combination with chemotherapy and radiation.

Whole tumor RNA-sequencing and deconvolution reveal a clinically-prognostic PTEN/PI3K-regulated glioma transcriptional signature [PDF]
The concept that solid tumors are maintained by a productive interplay between neoplastic and non-neoplastic elements has gained traction with the demonstration that stromal fibroblasts and immune system cells dictate cancer development and progression ...

KCa3.1 channel inhibition sensitizes malignant gliomas to temozolomide treatment [PDF]
Malignant gliomas are among the most frequent and aggressive cerebral tumors, characterized by high proliferative and invasive indexes. Standard therapy for patients, after surgery and radiotherapy, consists of temozolomide (TMZ), a methylating agent ...

DUSP10 upregulation is a poor prognosticator and promotes cell proliferation and migration in glioma
Dual-specificity phosphatase 10 (DUSP10) correlates with inflammation, cytokine secretion, cell proliferation, survival, and apoptosis. However, its role in glioma is unclear.

Selective Targeting to Glioma with Nucleic Acid Aptamers [PDF]
Malignant glioma is characterised by a rapid growth rate and high capacity for invasive infiltration to surrounding brain tissue; hence, diagnosis and treatment is difficult and patient survival is poor.

Axitinib induces senescence-associated cell death and necrosis in glioma cell lines: The proteasome inhibitor, bortezomib, potentiates axitinib-induced cytotoxicity in a p21(Waf/Cip1) dependent manner. [PDF]
Glioblastoma is associated with a poor overall survival despite new treatment advances. Antiangiogenic strategies targeting VEGF based on tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are currently undergoing extensive research for the treatment of glioma.

MicroRNA-29a-3p Downregulation Causes Gab1 Upregulation to Promote Glioma Cell Proliferation
Background/Aims: Glioma causes significant human mortalities annually. Molecularly-targeted therapy is a focus of glioma research. Methods: Grb2-associated binding 1 (Gab1) expression and microRNA-29a-3p (“miR-29a-3p”) expression in human glioma cells ...
