DNA Damage Response and Growth Factor Signaling Pathways in Gliomagenesis and Therapeutic Resistance
13 Sept 2011
Abstract excerpt
The dismal prognosis of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is mainly due to the poor response of GBM patients to any therapeutic modalities, which include ionizing radiation and DNA-alkylating agents. In the last few years, the important role of the DNA damage response (DDR) pathway in tumor formation and modulation of therapeutic response has been appreciated. Interestingly, several of the genetic alterations...
