Magnetic Graphene Oxide Nanocarrier as a drug delivery vehicle for MRI monitored magnetic targeting of rat brain tumors
Introduction: Glioblastoma multiform is the most common malignant brain tumor, with an invasive nature. Despite the development of conventional therapies such as surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy, because of high recurrence rates, the prognosis remains very poor. Over the last decade, nanotechnology has represented an innovative method as nanoparticle-based drug delivery ...
متن کاملChronic dosing with MLN0518 (tandutinib), a small molecule PDGFRα/β inhibitor, reduces tumour growth, hypoxia, and perfusion in C6 glioma xenografts: An investigation using susceptibility contrast enhanced MRI and immunohistochemical methods
Introduction Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is heavily reliant upon angiogenesis for growth and represents one of the most vascularised human tumours. MLN0518 (tandutinib) is a potent ATP-competitive and reversible type III receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor (RTKi) that crosses the blood brain barrier. In vitro it demonstrates activity against PDGFRα/β, FLT3 and c-KIT in the submicromolar range ...
متن کاملSRL-coated PAMAM dendrimer nano-carrier for targeted gene delivery to the glioma cells and competitive inhibition by lactoferrin
Glioma, as a primary tumor of central nervous system, is the main cause of death in patients with brain cancer. Therefore, development of an efficient strategy for treatment of glioma is worthy. The aim of the current study was to develop a SRL peptide-coated dendrimer as a novel dual gene delivery system for targeting the LRP receptor, an up-regulated gene in both BBB and glioma cells. To perf...

متن کاملThe Effects of Progesterone on Glial Cell Line-derived Neurotrophic Factor Secretion from C6 Glioma Cells
Objective(s)Progesterone is a steroid hormone whose biology has been greatly studied within the confines of reproductive function. In recent years, the neuroprotective effects of progesterone have attracted growing interest. Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), is a neurotrophic factor which plays a crucial role in the development and maintenance of distinct sets of central and p...
