Cancer stem cells in glioblastoma—molecular signaling and therapeutic targeting
1 Jul 2010
Abstract excerpt
Glioblastomas (GBMs) are highly lethal primary brain tumors. Despite current therapeutic advances in other solid cancers, the treatment of these malignant gliomas remains essentially palliative. GBMs are extremely resistant to conventional radiation and chemotherapies.
