Title: Stem Cell-Based Therapy for Malignant Glioma Running title: Stem Cells for Malignant Glioma
Stem cells have been extensively investigated as tumour-tropic vectors for gene delivery to solid tumours. In this review, we discuss the potential for using stem cells as cellular vector systems in gene therapy for malignant gliomas, with a focus on neural stem cells, and multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells. Tumour cell-derived substances and factors associated with tumour-induced inflammati...
متن کاملTemozolomide in malignant glioma
Glioblastoma multiforme WHO grade IV (GBM) is the most aggressive malignant glioma and the most frequent primary tumor of the central nervous system. The median survival of newly diagnosed GBM patients was between 9 to 12 months prior to treatment with temozolomide being introduced. Primary resection that is as complete as possible is recommended for malignant glioma. Conventional fractionated ...
متن کاملImmunotherapy for malignant glioma
Malignant gliomas (MG) are the most common type of primary malignant brain tumor. Most patients diagnosed with glioblastoma (GBM), the most common and malignant glial tumor, die within 12-15 months. Moreover, conventional treatment, which includes surgery followed by radiation and chemotherapy, can be highly toxic by causing nonspecific damage to healthy brain and other tissues. The shortcoming...
متن کاملMalignant Glioma Therapy
Accepted, February 12, 2003. MALIGNANT GLIOMAS ARE among the most challenging of all cancers to treat successfully, being characterized not only by aggressive proliferation and expansion but also by inexorable tumor invasion into distant brain tissue. Although considerable progress has been made in the treatment of these tumors with combinations of surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, these...
متن کاملHerpes Simplex Virus vector-based gene therapy for malignant glioma
Conventional therapies have made little impact on the poor prognosis associated with malignant glioma. Recent advances in the construction of replication-defective Herpes Simplex Virus (HPV)-based vectors have offered an opportunity to explore the therapeutic affects of simultaneous multiple transgene delivery to these tumours. Identification of co-operative molecular targets has enabled the ra...
